Winning the King of the Diamond Promo on DraftKings

There are multiple ways to approach this promo and you can take a chance on a longshot if you're daring enough, made easier by the rules which allow you to parlay up to five players, just like Dimers' Home Run Round Robins.

First things first, some strategy:

1. Start with Offenses on a Roll:
First and foremost, focus on teams that have been putting up big numbers at the plate recently, no just with one or two good hitters. For example, the Mariners have some big bats and won the promo previously, but have scored the fourth-fewest runs over the past two weeks. You need team upside.

2. Isolate the Soft Spot in the Matchup:
Reduce your targets further by finding the best pitching matchups. Look for starters with high home run rates, lots of contact and above average ERA numbers over their past several starts, especially against good offenses. Beyond the starters, poor bullpens give you opportunity to get runs late in the game and inflate the team total.

3. Zero In on the Power Threat:
You should have roughly 2-3 team targets at this point. Look at which hitters in the lineup are hot, have high HR analytics like Barrels, and match up well with the pitcher's split and pitch mix. Use Dimers' Best Home Run bets to find both value and high probability. A mix of elite sluggers and one or two dark candidates can give you a good spread of talent.

4. Maximize Your Options:
You can play 2-5 players in King of the Diamond and for a $5 bet, there's no reason not to go big. Simply put, you are maximizing your chances to win by including more players. Betting just 2 or 3 players puts you at a disadvantage against every other bettor who is maxing out with five hitters. Take advantage of the rules.

5. Check the Weather:
You may have found the perfect home run hitter in the best matchup, but how's the weather? You don't want to get burned by a poor forecast that's been overlooked so before you finalize your entry, give one last look at the local forecast at each stadium.📝 MLB Home Run Cheat Sheet for King of the Diamond
