The White Sox are 28th in wRC+ (87) with a 22.5 K% versus righties and tied for 28th in wRC+ (86) with a 21.3 K% at home in 2025. Chicago was better lately, but only slightly above average, ranking 13th in wRC+ (104) with a 21.7 K% in the previous 30 days. So, the Orioles are listed as -145 favorites, and the game’s total is 8.0 runs.
Ranger Suarez has a brutal matchup. The Dodgers are fourth in wRC+ (111) with a 21.9 K% versus lefties and first in wRC+ (126) with a 20.0 K% at home this year. Fortunately, Suarez is catching Los Angeles at a decent time, as they were just 12th in wRC+ (105) with a 20.7 K% in the previous 30 days.
Suarez is talented enough to overcome the challenging matchup. Suarez has amassed the following numbers in his previous five starts spanning 30.2 innings.
- 0.88 ERA

Suarez isn’t risk-free because of his matchup. Nevertheless, Suarez’s talent is worth betting on in DFS tonight.

Suggested Lineup Stacks
The Orioles have a cushy matchup tonight. Sean Burke has a 4.35 ERA in 25 appearances (21 starts) this season, which isn’t bad to stack against. Yet, his 5.16 xERA, 4.88 xFIP and 4.65 SIERA in 2025 are even more exciting numbers to stack against. Moreover, Burke has allowed a .339 wOBA to 268 left-handed batters and a .351 wOBA to 274 right-handed batters, making Baltimore’s lefties, righties and switch-hitters compelling stacking selections.
- Road (Chase Field)
- Game Total/Moneyline: 9.0 Runs/SF +120
Zac Gallen has pitched well lately. Nevertheless, the 30-year-old righty has a putrid 4.84 ERA, 4.51 xERA, 4.12 xFIP and 4.26 SIERA in 30 starts this season. San Francisco’s righties don’t have a cushy matchup. However, Gallen’s .301 wOBA surrendered to them in 2025 isn’t lights out, either. However, San Francisco’s switch-hitters and lefties can benefit from Gallen coughing up a .339 wOBA to left-handed batters this season. Finally, Arizona’s bullpen has the third-highest ERA this year, enhancing the appeal of stacking the Giants tonight.
Core Studs
- Gunnar Henderson has recorded a .360 OBP, .251 ISO, .380 wOBA and 149 wRC+ in 1,359 plate appearances against righties since 2023.
