Milwaukee Brewers DFS Spin
Brewers center fielder Jackson Chourio recorded multiple hits in his team’s 5-2 win over the Phillies on Sunday afternoon. In that game, the 21-year-old right-handed hitter went 2 for 5 with 2 singles, an RBI, and a run scored. For the season, Chourio is hitting .258 with 9 homers, 35 RBIs, 11 steals, and an OPS of .726 in 256 at-bats. Jackson Chourio is hitting .313 with an OPS of .947 in his last 7 games, making him an interesting DFS option on Monday.
Cincinnati Reds DFS Spin
Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz drove in the majority of his club’s runs in their 7-3 loss to the Cubs on Sunday. Hitting out of the #3 spot in the batting order, the 2024 MLB stolen base leader went 2 for 3 with a homer, 2 RBIs, a walk, and 2 runs scored. De La Cruz is hitting .258 with 12 homers, 42 RBIs, 17 steals, and an OPS of .786 in 233 at-bats this year. The 23-year-old switch-hitter is batting .288 with an .899 OPS against right-handed pitching this season. That fact makes Elly De La Cruz worthy of DFS consideration against Brewers righty Aaron Civale on Monday.
