Washington Nationals DFS SPIN
Jeimer Candelario went 3-for-4 with a run scored in the Nationals’ loss to the Marlins on Wednesday. Candelario has been a hitting machine lately. He has eight hits over his last three games, and three of those went for extra bases. The 29-year-old is hitting .247/.309/.405 with four homers but is still just relevant in NL-only or deeper mixed leagues.
Miami Marlins DFS SPIN
Jorge Soler went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in a 4-3 win over the Nationals on Wednesday. After hitting a walk-off, two-run home run on Tuesday, Soler was at it again on Wednesday. The 31-year-old slugger clobbered a 407-foot bomb with an exit velocity of 102.6 mph. He is hitting .240/.321/.520 with 11 homers across 168 plate appearances this season.
