Baltimore Orioles DFS Spin
Orioles left fielder Colton Cowser was one of 3 Baltimore players to go yard in their 9-1 win over the Rangers on Friday night. Hitting out of the #6 spot in the lineup, Cowser went 1 for 4 with a homer, 2 RBIs, and a run scored. In 295 plate appearances this year, the Houston native is slashing .219/.305/.427 with 13 homers and 26 RBIs. Cowser’s .746 OPS against righties this year could make him a cost-effective option in DFS on Saturday.
Texas Rangers DFS Spin
Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe drove in his club’s only run in their 9-1 loss to the Orioles on Friday night. In that game, the 6’4” left-handed hitter went 1 for 4 with a homer, an RBI, and a run scored. For the season, Lowe is hitting .262 with 7 homers, 38 RBIs, and an OPS of .728 across 306 plate appearances. Nathaniel Lowe has an on-base percentage of .400 in 3 career at-bats against Baltimore starter Grayson Rodriguez. That fact means the Texas first baseman might be a nice cheaper option in DFS on Saturday.

Baltimore has been one of the best teams in baseball so far in 2024. The Orioles have the second-best straight-up record in the American League at 59-38. Baltimore also has the best record in league games this year, as the O’s are 47-24 straight up against American League opponents this season. What’s more, Baltimore is 46-31 straight up as a favorite and 49-33 straight up when playing on no rest this year. On top of that, Baltimore has had recent success against Texas. The Orioles are 4-1 straight up in their last 5 games against the Rangers. Baltimore has outscored Texas by a combined score of 30-20 in those contests. I like the Orioles to keep it rolling against the Rangers with an outright win in Arlington on Saturday night.
