MLB DFS: Locks, Stacks, and Barrels for June 12, 2019

You will definitely want some exposure to Verlander to some capacity in tournaments, but maybe it’s best we look elsewhere in cash games. With that said, let’s dive in and take a look at today’s Locks, Stacks, and Barrels.

June 10, 2019

Tiger fans like me know that in early June, this season almost seems to be a lost cause.

June 2, 2019

The calendar flips to June on this 2019 baseball season. At this point, all 30 teams have had hot and cold streaks. All 30 teams have felt the excitement, and now reality has hit.

MLB Draft Preview: Matthew Allan

June 1, 2019

Matthew Allan, RHP (Seminole High School in Florida)
Height: 6’3”
Weight: 210 LBs
Age: 18
Bats: Right
Throws: Right
MLB Pipeline Grades – Fastball: 60 | Curveball: 60 | Changeup: 55 | Control: 55 | Overall: 55
Matthew Allan is a right-handed starting pitcher who attends Seminole High School in Florida. He has a strong build with room to fill out more. He pitches with a relatively slow delivery and a large leg raise. His pitching mechanics come naturally to him, requiring little effort. He pitches with more control from the windup as opposed to the stretch. His fastball is accurate and tops out at 97 miles per hour. As he continues to mature physically, he will probably be able to dial his fastball up to 98-99. He was selected to play in the 2018 Perfect Game All-American Classic.
