We've got a Single Game Showdown tonight — TB @ LAD at Dodger Stadium, first pitch 10:10PM EDT. We're captaining Junior Caminero at the 1.5x and stacking three Rays bats that mash left-handed pitching against Justin Wrobleski, with a Dodgers trio of Kyle Tucker, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy on the other side. Every dollar of the cap is in play.

Junior Caminero — MVP, $16,200

Caminero takes the 1.5x captain slot and mashes left-handed pitching — a .902 OPS with a .192 ISO, an 18.9% walk rate and a tiny 12.2% K% in 90 PA vs LHP, backed by a 12.3% Barrel% and 49.8% HardHit% overall. He draws Justin Wrobleski, a lefty whose 2.95 ERA sits under a 4.19 xERA with a low 5.5 K/9 — a contact pitcher in a regression spot — and Dodger Stadium leans mildly hitter-friendly tonight. The multiplier on Caminero against a hittable lefty is the lineup's ceiling.

Yandy Díaz — UTIL, $11,800

Díaz is one of the best bats in the game against lefties — a .868 OPS with a .303 average and a .197 ISO vs LHP and an elite 14.9% K%. Against Wrobleski's contact profile in a hitter-friendly park, he's a high-floor, high-contact anchor in the Rays group.

Kyle Tucker — UTIL, $8,800

Tucker leads the Dodgers side against Drew Rasmussen, and his on-base skills travel — a .336 OBP and a 12% walk rate vs RHP. Rasmussen is a tough arm, but Tucker's plate discipline and line-drive contact give him a steady floor with the Dodger Stadium environment helping.

Mookie Betts — UTIL, $7,800

Betts brings elite talent and bat-to-ball — a 11.9% K% vs RHP — at a price well below his ceiling. He's the kind of star bat worth taking a shot on in a Showdown, in a mildly hitter-friendly Dodger Stadium with the upside to swing the slate.

Max Muncy — UTIL, $9,600

Muncy is the power piece of the Dodgers side, bringing elite contact quality — a 12.3% Barrel% and 53.4% HardHit% with a .173 ISO. One swing changes his night, and the mildly hitter-friendly Dodger Stadium air gives his pull-side power a real ceiling.

Ryan Vilade — UTIL, $5,400

Solid head-to-head vs Justin Wrobleski — .200 AVG / .200 OBP / .800 SLG / 1.000 OPS in 5 AB (1 H, 1 XBH, 1 HR). Vilade is the value piece in the Rays group with a homer already off Wrobleski, and he mashes lefties — a .870 OPS with a .313 average vs LHP — making him a cheap, high-upside piece in the stack.

The lineup at a glance — Junior Caminero captains a Rays group that mashes left-handed pitching against Justin Wrobleski's contact-and-regression profile, with Yandy Díaz and Ryan Vilade alongside him; Kyle Tucker, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy handle the Dodgers side against Drew Rasmussen at a mildly hitter-friendly Dodger Stadium. One of the six bats — Vilade — lines up against the exact pitcher he's performed against historically. We're under cap.

Let's have a big night! 💰🔥
