Monday's Starting Pitcher Strategy
The first and second-ranked pitchers are essentially 1A and 1B. Ultimately, the scale tilted toward the first pitcher on the table because of the salary discount relative to the second hurler at FD. The third pitcher is the ideal SP2 at DK. The lefty is also a high-upside option in GPPs at FD.

Cash Game Recommendations:

Hunter Brown (HOU) vs. NYM
Brown is pitching well in his first full season in the majors. He's also in good form. According to FanGraphs, in his last five starts spanning 30.2 innings, he's had a 3.23 ERA, 2.58 xFIP, 1.01 WHIP, 7.6 BB%, 30.3 K%, 61.6 GB% and 28.0 CSW%.

Brown has also excelled at home since reaching the majors for a cup of coffee last season. In 44.0 innings at home, Brown has a 2.45 ERA, 3.10 xFIP, 1.20 WHIP, 10.2 BB% and 26.6 K%. The Mets are an average matchup. However, they've struck out in 24.5% of their plate appearances in the last 14 days. In addition, per Betting Pros, the Astros are -130, and the game's total is only 7.5 runs.

Monday's Hitter Strategy
The Reds are the cream of the crop for hitters tonight. They're an alluring stack in all game types. However, the Pirates have enticing values to mini-stack and are an intriguing full-stack choice in GPPs.
