Introduction
Monday brings a solid nine-game MLB DFS slate. The slate doesn’t have the dazzle of a game at Coors Field or Globe Life Park in Arlington to headline it but there are still some solid hitting environments and pitchers to pick on for homers.
Prices included for FanDuel and DraftKings to help find where the best value may be and positions are based on FanDuel.
So with that here is who will be swinging for the fences today…
