Episode 34 – Stackin’ A’s

The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Paul Sporer discusses both Thursday slates covering every position. His favorite stacks include the Mariners in the afternoon and A’s in the evening. The Braves make a sneaky night stack v. Garza, too. Pitching is tough in the evening leading toward some high-dollar recommendations on the offensive side. Meanwhile the big arms in the afternoon are facing decent lineups.

Contest picks for Thursday, May 21: Jesse Chavez @ TB (Dylan and Matt).

Contest picks for Friday, May 22: Henderson Alvarez vs. BAL (Dylan) and Chris Young vs. STL (Matt).

You Aren't a FanGraphs Member
It looks like you aren't yet a FanGraphs Member (or aren't logged in). We aren't mad, just disappointed.
We get it. You want to read this article. But before we let you get back to it, we'd like to point out a few of the good reasons why you should become a Member.
1. Ad Free viewing! We won't bug you with this ad, or any other.
2. Unlimited articles! Non-Members only get to read 10 free articles a month. Members never get cut off.

4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.
5. One-click data exports! Export our projections and leaderboards for your personal projects.
6. Remove the photos on the home page! (Honestly, this doesn't sound so great to us, but some people wanted it, and we like to give our Members what they want.)
7. Even more Steamer projections! We have handedness, percentile, and context neutral projections available for Members only.
8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.

We hope you'll consider a Membership today, for yourself or as a gift! And we realize this has been an awfully long sales pitch, so we've also removed all the other ads in this article. We didn't want to overdo it.

Suggested DFS picks worth attention for Thursday, May 21: Hundley, Miller, Guerrero are my favorites in the afternoon; Vogt, Semien, and Reddick (yes, all A’s!) in the evening.
