Monday Night MLB Slate Packed with Value Picks

Fantasy baseball enthusiasts can capitalize on standout performances from emerging stars

The evening’s schedule brings together seven contests, five of which pit teams against divisional rivals while sprinkling in a handful of interleague matchups that add extra intrigue.

For daily fantasy participants, the key lies in identifying players who deliver outsized production relative to their salary, and this slate offers several compelling options.

Why These Picks Stand Out

Griffin Jax of the Tampa Bay Rays has been on a roll, posting 18 or more fantasy points in each of his last four starts. His high strikeout ceiling and a 2.65 ERA as a starter make him a premium source of points at a modest price.

Blaze Jordan, the versatile 1B/3B for the St. Louis Cardinals, has compiled a 15‑for‑61 stretch with three doubles, a triple and a home run across 18 appearances. He averages 6.2 fantasy points per game and has posted a .313 batting average with 11 homers at Triple‑A, underscoring his consistent upside.

A.J. Ewing of the New York Mets rounds out the trio with three homers in his past 12 games, a .390 weighted on‑base average and 9.1 fantasy points per game. His blend of power and speed is further highlighted by 17 stolen bases in just 30 games at the Double‑A and Triple‑A levels.
