These are today’s fantasy baseball targets based on the current data.
The goal is simple: build a strong, balanced lineup by starting with pitching, identifying high-upside team stacks, and then filling in hitters based on matchups and trends.
This is all driven by a system I’m actively testing and refining, with a focus on building consistent, winning lineups over time.
Yesterday’s Results
Cash Line: 135.0
Lineup Score: 142.1
Result: ✅ Cashed
We survived a low pitching performance yesterday from Kris Bubic, but thankfully the rest of the lineup did more than enough to carry us. That’s one of the more encouraging kinds of DFS wins, too — not the kind where one player goes nuclear and saves everything, but the kind where the lineup produces across the board.
Marcell Ozuna was easily the top performer, finishing just shy of 30 FanDuel points. But the really impressive part is this: we scored 142.1 points without a single player topping 30. That speaks to the overall balance of the lineup and the value of getting solid production from nearly every spot.
Even the lowest scorer in the lineup, Zach Neto, wasn’t part of the original build. He ended up being a late swap after Corey Seager was out, and while it wasn’t a huge score, he didn’t sink us either. That’s another good reminder of how important it is to stay flexible right up until lock.
The top score on the slate was 194.8, and the cash line came in at a very strong 135.0. That makes yesterday’s result even better. We still cashed despite getting a poor outing from our pitcher and needing to clear a pretty high number to get there.
That’s another win in the books, and now the focus shifts to today’s slate to see if we can keep the run going.
