Los Angeles Dodgers DFS SPIN
James Outman went 4-for-5 with two homers and four RBI on Saturday, leading the Dodgers to a 9-4 blowout win over the Cubs. It might’ve been cold at Wrigley Field, but Outman remained red-hot at the plate with his second multi-homer performance in his last three games. The 25-year-old rookie sensation has gone deep four times and also collected nine RBI in his last three games. He took righty Hayden Wesneski deep to right field for a second-inning solo homer and added a two-run shot off reliever Brad Boxberger in the ninth inning as well. He’s batting a sublime .314/.407/.714 with 14 runs scored, seven round-trippers, 19 RBI and two steals through 22 games this season. He should obviously be rostered in all fantasy formats.
Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN
Nico Hoerner went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer on Saturday in the Cubs’ loss to the Dodgers. Hoerner capped off a multi-hit effort with a two-run homer to center field off righty reliever Yency Almonte in the seventh inning. It was his second long ball of the season. The 25-year-old second baseman has gotten off to a tremendous start at the dish, batting .367/.406/.489 with 19 runs scored, two homers, 11 RBI and nine stolen bases across 96 plate appearances.
