MLB DFS Lineup Advice & Picks: Monday (4/10)

The first DFS main slate of the work week is eight games at DraftKings and FanDuel, starting at 7:10 pm ET. The slate has a fun mix of high-end pitching and offenses in high-upside situations. Thus, even the chalk options might not be as chalky as usual.

Monday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
When considering their production and matchups, two aces are a cut above the rest. Yet, two hurlers are more affordable and have compelling cases for use in various game types. Still, it's not outrageous to double up on aces in cash games at DK.

Cash Game Recommendations:

Julio Urias (LAD) at SF
According to FanGraphs, the Giants have only three projected starters with a wRC+ above 110 against lefties since 2021. So, San Francisco's offense lacks high-end talent and depth against lefties. Meanwhile, Urias is talented.

The 26-year-old southpaw has a 1.50 ERA, 2.08 xERA, 0.75 WHIP, 0.0 BB%, 27.9 K% and 25.7 CSW% in two starts that totaled 12.0 innings this year. Additionally, Urias had a 2.16 ERA and 2.81 xERA last year. He can give the Giants fits, and the betting info suggests he will. According to Betting Pros, the Dodgers are -152, and the game's total is only 7.5 runs.

Monday's Hitter Strategy
Gamers should attack Corbin with Angels in all game types. Paul Goldschmidt wasn't included in the core studs' section, but he's an attractive option on DFS teams with the requisite cap space after selecting Trout, the pitchers and the featured values. The Cards are another excellent stack in all game types.
