Zach Thompson provides his top MLB DFS stacking recommendations for Saturday's seven-game daily fantasy baseball slate on DraftKings. The Milwaukee Brewers, Kansas City Royals, and Houston Astros are highlighted as the top offenses to target with their favorable matchups and implied run totals.

Why it matters

Stacking multiple players from the same high-powered offense is a popular strategy in MLB DFS, as it allows entries to capitalize on correlated scoring plays that can propel lineups to the top of leaderboards. Identifying the right teams to stack based on their projected run-scoring potential is crucial for DFS success.

The details

The Brewers face White Sox pitcher Sean Burke, who struggled on the road last season. Their lefty-heavy lineup led by Brice Turang, Sal Frelick, and Jake Bauers should be in a prime spot to produce. The Royals take on Reynaldo Lopez, who is returning from shoulder surgery, making Kansas City's lineup a strong stacking option. The Astros look to break out against Angels lefty Reid Detmers, who has struggled mightily against Houston in his career.

  • The Astros and Angels start the third game of their AL West series in Houston at 7:10 p.m. ET.
  • The Brewers and White Sox get underway in Milwaukee at 7:10 p.m. ET.
