Hunter Greene is taking on the San Francisco Giants on Monday, and he is capable of putting together a dominant start. Greene is sitting at 0-1 with a 2.25 ERA this season, but he will rack up strikeouts in this game.

Michael King (9200 on DraftKings; 8700 on FanDuel)

Michael King will be starting against the Athletics on Monday night and has developed into one of the best pitchers in the National League. King has gone just 7.2 innings in two starts this season, but expect a deep outing from him in this game.

Zac Gallen (8300 on DraftKings; 9800 on FanDuel)

Zac Gallen is coming off a start against the New York Yankees, where he kept that great lineup scoreless in 6.2 innings. Gallen will have more luck at home as he will shut down the Baltimore Orioles.

Elly De La Cruz (6100 on DraftKings; 4300 on FanDuel)

Elly De La Cruz can do so much on a baseball diamond and rack up the DFS points quickly. The Reds need their young star to produce, and that's exactly what he will do on Monday.

Julio Rodriguez (5200 on DraftKings; 3500 on FanDuel)

Julio Rodriguez has hit three home runs in the first 10 games of the season for the Seattle Mariners, but he hasn't gotten much help. That doesn't matter when playing DFS, though, as the young superstar will have another big game.

Top MLB DFS Budget picks:

Wyatt Langford (4200 on DraftKings; 3400 on FanDuel)

Wyatt Langford has already hit three home runs for the Texas Rangers and continues to be undervalued. Look for Langford to have more success on Monday night against the Chicago Cubs.

Luis Arraez (3500 on DraftKings; 2600 on FanDuel)

Luis Arraez gets lost in the shuffle on many nights with the San Diego Padres, but he's a great player. Arraez will get some hits on Monday night, leading to some runs.
