Temps near 100 degrees in a hitter’s park? Yes please! Rooker has the best overall numbers, but Wilson is solid too. Wilson’s power numbers are lower so we’d like H+R+R/singles instead.

TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB (1u), HR (0.3u-0.5u for boosts and such), parlay pieces

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.

Elly will eventually start cooling off, so we will nee to know when to back off, but everything lines up well. Encarnacion-Strand has a smaller sample but his numbers look good too. TJ Friedl showed up on the radar but the power numebrs were low, so only an H+R+R maybe pile.

TARGET MARKETS: H+R+R/TB (1u), HR (0.2-0.3u … 0.5 for boosts), parlay pieces
