San Diego Padres DFS Spin
Padres right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. homered in San Diego’s 3-2 loss to New York on Saturday. It was Tatis’ second home run in as many days as he also went deep in Game 1 of this series on Friday night. The past two games might be signs that Tatis is beginning to heat up. For the year Tatis is slashing just .254/.297/.486. His counting stats aren’t bad though as he does have 5 doubles, 9 home runs, 18 RBIs, and 4 stolen bases this season. He’ll look to make it three straight games with a homer on Sunday.
New York Yankees DFS Spin
Yankees third baseman DJ LeMahieu was clutch in the Yankees’ win over the Padres on Saturday. LeMahieu clubbed a solo home run to tie the game at 2 in the seventh inning, setting up teammate Isiah Kiner-Falefa to win the game with a walk-off single in the 10th. Earlier in the game LeMahieu doubled in Aaron Judge to open the scoring for the Bronx Bombers. For the year LeMahieu has an OPS of .753 with 6 homers, 21 RBIs and 21 runs scored. He has an OPS of 1.300 against Yu Darvish in his career, so LeMahieu may be worth a look in most DFS formats.

Padres vs. Yankees Betting Prediction
This game has all the makings of a pitcher’s duel as Yu Darvish (3.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP) and Gerrit Cole (2.53 ERA, 1.14 WHIP) square off on Sunday afternoon. Both pitchers average more than a strikeout per inning, and both games of this series have gone under the Game 3 total of 7.5 runs. I like the under in this rematch of the 1998 World Series on Sunday.
MLB Betting Prediction: PADRES/YANKEES UNDER 7.5
