MLB DFS Tools: PlateIQ Overview

FantasyLabs has an abundance of DFS tools to offer, like our Lineup Optimizer and Lineup Builder, and now we’re introducing PlateIQ.

What is PlateIQ?

  • A matchup tool for MLB DFS, sports betting, and pick’em.
  • Designed to easily view — with color-coded context — batter vs. pitcher matchups for the day.
  • Includes key stats, advanced stats, context stats, and split stats to help a DFS player or bettor understand exactly who is in the lineup and how the stats compare side by side.
  • View stats at the player or team level.
  • Compare a pitcher’s long-term performance to recent performance, including recent game logs and pitch usage.
  • Use the information to:
    • Isolate pitchers to target
    • Isolate stacks to target
    • Isolate individual players to target

Here’s an example of what the hitter’s view looks like — with the option for basic or advanced metrics:

PlateIQ Key Benefits

  • Organized: easy to get the data that is necessary to make predictions in one place.
  • Simple: weeds out the endless sea of baseball stats to just the core of what you need.
  • Fast: eliminate manually creating spreadsheets, switching to and from multiple sites, and spending too much time researching baseball so you can spend more time building lineups.

That about sums it up!
