This tool seeks to summarize the day’s stacking opportunities by providing several data points from our model. The tool is sorted by the most highly projected team batting orders by taking the average score from 1-9 for the morning’s projected lineup. The value columns are a point-per-dollar reflection of player projection at their specific price for both DraftKings and FanDuel, they require a bit of interpretation in that a team with a good value rating can be either a very good team that is simply at fair prices or a lower-end cheap team in a positive spot. Home run rank is the team’s position in the “Full” column in our Power Index, and the final column is the ranking of the projection of the opposing starting pitcher.
