MLB – On the Hill – Wednesday (August 14) – Main

I’m going to provide my recommendations for the six-game Wednesday night MLB DFS slate. My preferred pitching options came together quite easily on the small slate with a good option at the high, middle, and low end of the salary spectrum. All teams are worth at least some consideration to stack on a small slate but I’ll give you my favorite three options.

MLB – On the Hill – Tuesday (August 13)

Another big 15-game MLB DFS slate for Tuesday night. As you would expect with a large slate there are plenty of options on the mound and to stack up. On the pitching side, you can either go with a balanced/mid-range approach or go the Ace/Value route. On the hitting side, it seems like a night to use some of those fringe stacking options including a few that didn’t quite make the cut for me like the Cubs, Reds, Phillies, and Braves.

MLB – On the Hill – Monday (August 12)

Monday’s eight-game MLB slate is severely lacking pitching options. This makes it easy to recommend a bunch of stacks, but I’ve tried to narrow it down to my favorite three. Others to consider that didn’t happen to make the list include the Rockies, Yankees, and the matchup between the Nationals and Reds if you want a sneaky game stack. Also, check out which cheap pitching options I’m willing to roll the dice with to fit in some of the high-priced stacking options.

MLB – On the Hill – Friday (August 9)

Friday delivers a 14-game MLB DFS slate for us to dissect. There are a bunch of strong pitching options to consider from the high-priced studs to some mid-range diamonds in the rough and a good value play. There are also enough strong stacking options that ownership shouldn’t get to crazy on any of them, so just roll with your favorite options or use mine.

MLB – On the Hill – Thursday (August 8)

There are eight games on the docket for Thursday night around the MLB. It might be a tough slate to navigate as there doesn’t seem to be much value to roster on the mound nor at the plate. I’ll still try to give you a few guys in my stacks and on the mound that you can consider.

MLB – On the Hill – Tuesday (August 6)

We have a jam-packed 15-game MLB DFS slate on tap for Tuesday night. Despite the large slate, I found it pretty easy to zero in on my top plays on the mound and at the plate. On the hill, I think you either need to pay up for a high-priced pitcher or two. Or dig down for a deep value option that won’t hurt you. Meanwhile, on the hitting side, I have locked in three reasonably priced stacking options that should carry to much ownership.
