MLB FanDuel After Hours Lineup - 6/24/2026

2-game FanDuel MLB After Hours Slate, first pitch 8:40PM EDT. Gage Jump anchors the mound against the Giants, and we build around two games — a four-man Athletics stack going after a hittable Tyler Mahle and a Braves group attacking at Petco.

On the mound, we're rolling with Gage Jump (P, $10,700). He's the spend-up at pitcher and the anchor — the young left-hander has been excellent, posting a 2.37 ERA with a 0.99 WHIP, a 3.11 xERA and a 7.71 K/9. The strikeout stuff and command give him a high floor, and he draws a Giants lineup in a pitcher-friendly Oracle Park. A strong arm to build around.

Nick Kurtz — C/1B, $4,500

Kurtz is the power bat that headlines the Athletics stack — a 1.052 OPS with a .587 SLG, .291 ISO and 13 HR vs RHP. He draws Tyler Mahle, who's been hittable at a 6.04 ERA, a 1.54 WHIP and a 1.75 HR/9, and the history is on his side: Solid head-to-head vs Mahle — .200 AVG / .200 OBP / .800 SLG / 1.000 OPS in 5 AB (1 H, 1 XBH, 1 HR, 3 RBI). The cool, breezy Oracle night isn't a launch pad, but a bat this good against a struggling arm is a strong spot.

Ozzie Albies — 2B, $3,200

Albies is the value piece in the Braves group, a switch-hitter who turns to the right side against lefty JP Sears — an .865 OPS with a .529 SLG and 6 HR vs LHP. The winds are blowing in at Petco, so this is an on-base-and-traffic spot rather than a power one, but Albies gets the platoon edge in a game the Braves should push. A correlated piece in the Petco game.

Austin Riley — 3B, $2,800

Riley is the value bat into the same Sears matchup, a right-handed hitter with real power upside against a left-hander. The pitcher-friendly Petco environment keeps the focus on contact and reaching base, but Riley's ceiling against a lefty he holds the platoon edge on is worth the cheap price. He extends the Braves group at a value tag.

Jacob Wilson — SS, $2,900

Wilson is the contact-and-value piece in the Athletics stack — a .709 OPS with a strong bat-to-ball profile vs RHP. He's into the same Mahle matchup, where a starter handing out a 1.54 WHIP and getting hit hard gives a contact bat a clear path to reaching base. Same cool Oracle environment as the rest of the Oakland group.

Lawrence Butler — OF, $2,500

Butler is the value-and-speed piece in the Athletics stack — 5 HR and 3 SB vs RHP with the pop to punish a mistake. Same hittable Mahle matchup the rest of the Oakland group is attacking, and at $2,500 he's a cheap way to extend the stack against a starter with a 6.04 ERA.

Tyler Soderstrom — OF, $3,400

Soderstrom is the left-handed power piece in the Athletics stack — an .835 OPS with a .469 SLG, .214 ISO and 7 HR vs RHP — and he's owned Mahle in their brief history: Solid head-to-head vs Mahle — .500 AVG / .500 OBP / .667 SLG / 1.167 OPS in 6 AB (3 H, 1 XBH). A correlated bat with both history and pop against a struggling arm.

Miguel Andújar — OF, $2,600

Andújar is the Padres bring-back and the leverage piece from the other side of the Braves game. He draws Martín Pérez, a tougher matchup, but he's a right-handed bat with the contact ability to put the ball in play, and at $2,600 he's a cheap dart from the home side if San Diego answers. The piece that wins if the Padres get going at Petco.

Eli White — UTIL, $2,400

White is the value bat that rounds out the Braves group — a .797 OPS with a .452 SLG and .188 ISO vs LHP — into the same Sears matchup where he gets the platoon edge as a right-handed bat. Same Petco environment, and at $2,400 he's the cheap piece that lets us pay up for Jump and Kurtz at the top. A correlated value play.

The lineup at a glance — Jump anchors with a strikeout ceiling against the Giants, and the four-man Athletics stack of Kurtz, Wilson, Butler and Soderstrom hammers a hittable Tyler Mahle in a cool Oracle Park. The Braves group of Albies, Riley and White attacks lefty JP Sears with the platoon edge at a wind-in Petco, where the focus is contact over power, and Andújar is the Padres bring-back. Two of our eight bats — Kurtz and Soderstrom — line up against the exact pitcher they've performed against historically.

Let's have a big night! 💰🔥
