With 13 games and 26 teams to choose from, the Friday MLB DFS slate is offering a little bit of everything on DraftKings and FanDuel tonight. There are several pitchers who are targetable for power, including old pal Josiah Gray, who has the Braves loaded lineup looking juicy at the top of the board. Overall, this is a rather good pitching slate, with a deep list of both high-end luxuries and mid-range fairly priced options. A slate of this size demands a broad spread of lineups that cover a wide swath of the middle of the Power Index as well as a collection of the best pitching options from a range of prices.
Main Slate Power Index – 6/9/23 – DraftKings & FanDuel Main Slates
The power index represents a team’s opportunity for home run upside in the matchup against the scheduled starting pitcher. This is not a direct guideline for stacking, but it can be utilized to determine the most likely sources of power-based contact, hitters who are not homering are frequently hitting doubles and driving in runs, and providing valuable MLB DFS scoring. The “Full” column averages our home run opportunity score for each player in the lineup from 1-9, while the “Top 6” column averages only hitters 1-6, where teams typically place their most significant bats.
