Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Josh Lowe went 1-for-4 with a two-run double on Wednesday to lead the Rays to a 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks. The Rays couldn’t get anything going against the Diamondbacks, going scoreless through eight innings. They put a run on the board and left two runners on for Lowe with two outs in the ninth. He knocked a double off Scott McGough to drive in two runs for the lead. The 25-year-old outfielder is hitting .284/.327/.502 with 11 homers, 44 RBI, and 18 steals across 245 plate appearances.
Arizona Diamondbacks DFS SPIN
Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo confirmed to reporters that Brandon Pfaadt will start on Thursday against the Rays. Pfaadt will make his first start in the majors since May 26 on Thursday afternoon at Chase Field. The 24-year-old top pitching prospect has turned things around at Triple-A Reno since being demoted last month, and represents an interesting stash candidate for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues. There’s a ton of strikeout upside here, and he could make an impact, if he can keep the ball in the yard.
