Underdog Fantasy MLB Daily Pick ‘Em Plays – June 21
Mark Canha Higher than 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs
Mark Canha was a solid offseason pickup for the Tigers. The 35-year-old veteran has been good for Detroit, slashing a respectable .246/.349/.375. I’m huge on Canha in this spot because of his numbers against White Sox starter Erik Fedde. Canha is a shocking 6-9 with a home run against Fedde.
He’s also good for a .662 xBA, 1.173 xSLUG, and .789 xwOBA against Fedde. Slam Canha while you still can!
Tyler O’Neill Higher than 8.5 Fantasy Points
The Red Sox have been playing much better ball lately. Their pitching has been excellent all year, and now their offense is catching up. Their work on the bases has been admirable as well, stealing bases at will. O’Neill, Devers, and Duran have been carrying this offense. O’Neill’s 15 home runs and .896 OPS have been essential in this Red Sox offensive prowess as of late.
O’Neill, who thrives against lefties, will face Red’s starter Andrew Abbott. Abbott has surrendered 13 home runs already this season. I wouldn’t be surprised if O’Neill adds to that tally in this one.
George Kirby Lower than 2.0 Earned Runs Allowed
Kirby has had a bit of a rocky start to 2024, but he has definitely settled in as of late. In his last four starts, Kirby has allowed just four earned runs and struck out 27 batters, pitching through 5.0 innings in each of those starts. Kirby is facing one of the league’s worst offenses on Friday in the Miami Marlins, and he should dominate them.
