MLB DFS Morning Grind 4/14/2026

In this 73-minute episode of the Daily Fantasy Morning Grind, host Stevie TPFL returns after missing Friday's show due to a NASCAR catch-up session. With 10 MLB games on the slate for April 14, 2026, Stevie dives deep into pitcher matchups, advanced stats, and DFS strategy. He highlights several high-upside pitchers including Mackenzie Gore, Joey Cantilio, and Ryan Weathers, emphasizing strikeout potential over traditional quality starts. Stevie expresses strong preference for pitchers with elite chase rates and whiff-heavy repertoires, particularly those with improved command or new pitch grips. He remains skeptical of pitchers with low strikeout rates like Sonny Gray and Michael McGreevy, despite their low prices. On the hitter side, he favors teams with high-contact, low-strikeout profiles such as Miami and Atlanta, while cautioning against stacking teams with weak bullpens or poor matchups. Notable recommendations include Jordan Alvarez, Owen Casey, and Jordan Walker for their low ownership and high upside. Stevie also announces a minor league baseball hat giveaway to celebrate reaching 2,000 YouTube subscribers, with the contest to be revealed Friday.
