Monday starts a new day and a new week in the daily fantasy sports world and we look to rebound from a poor showing over the weekend. Today’s $3 DraftKings contest pays out $50k to the winner tonight, so let’s try and get a piece of that pie. Bobby Babowski mentioned to me how much he loves Dallas Keuchel tonight at home against the Twins. I have to agree, so we’ll make him our top pitcher and add in James Shields in hopes that the Padres will finally score some runs for him. We will also add a couple of more Astros in Correa and Rasmus. Contest starts at 7:05 ET.
