Top play of the day for sure with Kurtz absolutely destroying the pitch mix. I think JJ Bleday is worth a sprinkle as well. Low sample size, but he’s been hot since he returned to the team.


TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB (1u), HR (0.3u)


Quick note on the Target Markets section: These are the markets I’m going to be line/promo shopping for when the markets open up. Sometimes I will avoid them if they’re too juicy or the odds are just garbage (-130 and worse). Unit recommendation is a general guideline, but could change based on value.

Carpenter has been raking since he returned from the IL, and while this is a tiny sample I went back L90 as well and things were equally as strong. Gleyber worth consideration, but Carpenter definitely first choice.
