A very busy Friday night features some tremendous pitching match-ups which means runs in some venues may be tough to come by. Thankfully, there's a couple of prime contests with double digit run totals for DFS players to take advantage of when constructing their lineups. With options in all three price tiers, use the information provided along with the DFS playbook and the lineup optimizer when creating your lineups for tonight's 14-game slate. Good luck!

Top Tier

Jose Altuve (R), Houston - 2B ($5,300 on DK, $4,000 on FD)

On pace to break his career home run mark, Altuve's hit three in his last two games and gets a left-handed pitcher at home giving up 1.6 home runs per nine innings on the road. Focus on his .400 isolated power in the second half and .308 average facing left-handed pitchers this season with five home runs in 117 at-bats. Plus, during his career facing Texas, Altuve owns a .301/.357/.481 slash and should take advantage of the short porch in left field keeping his power surge alive. 

Juan Soto (L), Washington - OF ($5,600 on DK, $4700 on FD)

Soto entered the All-Star break on a heater and he's picked right up where he left off hitting .522/.621/1.261 with eight runs, five home runs, 12 RBI and two stolen bases in six games starting the second half over 29 plate appearances. He's drawn six walks against three strikeouts in this sample with a robust .739 isolated power, .731 wOBA and ridiculous 364 weighted runs created plus (wRC+) metric. Of his 20 batted ball events, he's produced five barrels (25 percent) and 14 hard hits (exit velocity of 95 MPH-plus) for a hard hit rate of 70 since the onset of the second half. 

Mid Tier

Jonathan Schoop (R), Detroit - 1B/2B ($4,900 on DK, $3400 on FD)

Multiple position eligibility remains one reason for targeting Schoop on tonight's slate. He's also facing a southpaw with migration to the mean in the offing putting the Tigers hitters in a great spot tonight. Schoop owns a .260 isolated power against left-handed pitching this season with seven home runs, a .330 average and .960 OPS in 108 plate appearances this year. His team arrives in the midst of a seven-game win streak and may keep it going in a potentially high scoring game at Kaufmann tonight. 

Josh Bell (B) Washington - 1B ($4,000 on DK, $3,100 on FD)

Making a mini-stack with Soto and targeting the Orioles staff in Camden Yards makes perfect sense on this slate. Bell may be heating up in the power department but gets shrouded by his teammates eye popping numbers above. However, over his last six games he's launched two home runs with an enticing .286 isolated power and .571 slugging rate. Hopefully Washington gets to Jorge López (R) early and often putting the bullpen into play which translates to plenty of runs this evening.

Robbie Grossman (B), Detroit - OF ($3,700 on DK, $3,200 on FD)

On-base hog Grossman has been showing some pop at the onset of the second half with three home runs and a .292 average in his last 28 plate appearances. Within this seven game sample he owns a .375 isolated power and a .443 wOBA. Versus left-handed pitching he's produced a .909 OPS this year with a .242 isolated power and being a switch-hitter, will still generate points if they get to the Royals early in the match-up. 

Bargain Bats

Austin Hays (R), Baltimore - OF ($2,800 on DK, 2,900 on FD)

Obviously a much better price on DraftKings, Hays leads the Orioles against left-handed pitching hitting a robust .337/.370/.588 with seven doubles, four home runs and 31 runs plus RBI in only 94 plate appearances this season. Patrick Corbin (L) averages 1.94 home runs per nine on the road and enters one of baseball's friendliest hitting environments giving up almost two home runs per nine against right-handed hitters as well. Giddy up. 

Victor Reyes (B), Detroit - OF ($2,700 on DK, $2,000 on FD)

For tournament play, Reyes returned to the Tigers after the All-Star break and hit almost everything. He's reeled off a .833/.750/1.333 slash over his last eight plate appearances with five runs, a home run, two RBI and a stolen base. A post-hype sleeper in a great match-up and will not be on many rosters, Reyes could produce three-to-four times value with his ability to score points with an extra-base hit or a stolen base. Once the Tigers turn the lineup over, he could still accrue four at-bats even if he bats ninth.
