Hump Day Heroes 5/21/25

Everyone needs a midweek energy infusion, and baseball teams are no different. I’ve got a few guys primed for a big Hump Day who can help you out in fantasy, DFS, or just for some good old fashioned entertainment. First, let's check in on last week’s guys:

Carroll - 1 for 4 - MISS

Skubal - 6.1 IP, 11 Ks - HIT

Langford - 1 for 4, HR - HIT

Shohei Ohtani

Ohtani is Ohtani. Leading the league with 17 home runs, playing the rival (and high powered) Diamondbacks, Burnes is sitting with a 4.21 xFIP against lefties this season. Give me an Ohtani home run early in this game.

Ohtani 1+ Home Run +215 

Matt Olson

Olson might have found his stroke.Williams is far from a world beater for this Nationals team, currently sitting with a 5.91 ERA. Give me the big lefty to send a couple through the infield.

Olson 2+ Total Bases +100

Hunter Brown

Brown has been a standout pitcher for the Astros, boasting an impressive 6-2 record with a 1.43 ERA and 67 strikeouts in 56.2 innings. He just dominated the rival Rangers (8 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 9 Ks IN A LOSS) Brown will keep it going against a middling Rays team. There is upside to his strikeout number in this one.

Brown Over 6.5 Strikeouts -135
