The Chicago White Sox and Colorado Rockies have the two worst run differentials in baseball. With them being two of the only 14 teams on Monday's MLB schedule, should daily Fantasy baseball players build an MLB DFS strategy around fading those teams? The White Sox play the Mariners and the Rockies play the Twins, so should you utilize options such as Julio Rodriguez, J.P. Crawford or Carlos Correa from the MLB DFS player pool for MLB DFS picks on sites like FanDuel and DraftKings?
Logan Gilbert has a 3.12 ERA with 10 quality starts over his 13 outings, so is he a reliable option for MLB DFS lineups for the Mariners against the struggling White Sox? He allowed one run over seven innings against Oakland in his last start, so how should that affect your MLB DFS strategy?
