Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Ronald Acuña Jr. went 2-for-5 with a double and a stolen base on Wednesday in the Braves’ loss to the Phillies in Game 3 of the NLDS. The Braves find themselves on the brink of elimination after a blowout loss at the hands of the division-rival Phillies. After going hitless in the first two games of the series, Acuña Jr. was one of the few bright spots for Atlanta as he collected a pair of hits, scored a run, and also picked up a stolen base in this one. The 25-year-old fantasy superstar will attempt to spark a dramatic comeback during Thursday’s win-or-go-home Game 4 matchup in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia Phillies DFS SPIN
Bryce Harper launched two homers and collected four RBI on Wednesday, powering the Phillies to a 10-2 landslide victory over the Braves in Game 3 of the NLDS. Harper gave the Phillies — who tied a postseason record with six home runs in this one-sided contest — a commanding three-run advantage early on with a gargantuan third-inning homer to right field off Braves rookie right-hander Bryce Elder. He punctuated the round-tripper by iconically staring down Braves shortstop Orlando Arcia as he rounded second base. The 30-year-old generational slugger also added a fifth-inning solo shot off Braves lefty reliever Brad Hand to record his first career multi-homer performance in the postseason. He’s gone deep three times in this series already. Unreal. With the victory, the Phillies take control of a back-and-forth series against the division-rival Braves, and can punch their ticket back to the NLCS for the second consecutive campaign with a win in either Game 4 or Game 5.
