We’ve got an eight-game slate this Monday on DraftKings, and with some low expected run totals from Vegas there is one offense that really stands out tonight. The Cleveland Indians are heavy favorites over Lucas Giolito and the White Sox, and that game has an O/U of nine. There are plenty of good pitching options and good hitters in other games to fit in our lineup, but the Indians look like the stack of the night tonight.

Pitchers
Madison Bumgarner (SF): $10,400 @ MIA
Bumgarner is back and in a great matchup against the Marlins on this slate. The Marlins have a .301 wOBA and .123 ISO collectively against left-handed pitching this season. Bumgarner allowed two runs in six innings in his first start of the season against the Diamondbacks last week. There is no reason to think the Giants would have any pitch count restrictions on Bumgarner, making him the best pitcher in the best matchup on Monday.
Jose Quintana (CHC): $8,100 @ MIL
After a rocky April Quintana returned to form and posted a 3.09 ERA in May with a 24.5% strikeout rate. The Brewers are currently ranked 25th in the majors against lefties with a .299 wOBA and 81 wRC+. Quintana pairs nicely with Bumgarner as two reliable veteran lefties that can be expected to deliver deep outings. Because Bumgarner and Quintana are so favorably priced there isn’t much of a reason to dip down into the cheap pitchers tonight.
