Philadelphia Phillies DFS SPIN
Bryce Harper went 2-for-4 with two singles in Philadelphia’s loss to the Mets on Wednesday. His two hits were the hardest-hit balls of the night off Carlos Carrasco, but the Phillies could not find a clutch hit to knock him in. Harper’s hitting .315/.410/.483 in his first 24 games back from Tommy John surgery and the fantasy value should keep accumulating now that he’s back off the shelf.
New York Mets DFS SPIN
Mark Canha went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and four RBI in New York’s 4-1 win over the Phillies on Wednesday. Slugging just .386 on the season and having the Baby Mets make inroads on his playing time, Canha needed a game like this badly. He found a hanging Aaron Nola cutter in the third inning, then took advantage of a bases loaded spot to knock in two more with a single to short right field. Canha’s lack of power and lineup position means he remains a stay-away in fantasy unless you’re in a deeper league.
