New York Mets DFS Spin
Mets first baseman Pete Alonso drove in most of his team’s runs in their 5-3 win over the Rockies on Sunday afternoon. In that game, the 2019 NL Rookie of the Year went 1 for 4 with a homer, 3 RBIs, and a run scored. For the season, Alonso is hitting .288 with 12 homers, 46 RBIs, and an OPS of .927 across 219 at-bats. Pete Alonso is batting .295 with an OPS of .933 against right-handed pitching this season. That means the four-time All-Star could have some DFS value against Dodgers righty Dustin May on Monday.
Los Angeles Dodgers DFS Spin
Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy had one-third of his team’s hits in their 7-3 loss to the Yankees on Sunday night. Hitting out of the #7 spot in the lineup, the 34-year-old left-handed hitter went 2 for 3 with a homer, an RBI, and a run scored. Muncy is hitting .227 with 7 homers, 32 RBIs, 2 steals, and an OPS of .749 in 146 at-bats this year.
