Fernandez, Lester, Kluber primed to dazzle Monday

Welcome to DraftKings fantasy baseball, the Official Daily Fantasy Game of Major League Baseball.
The players listed below could provide difference-making stats for DraftKings participants on Monday.
Carlos Beltran: With balanced career splits that include a .280/.357/.483 slash line against right-handers, the outfielder could hit a homer at Yankee Stadium when he faces Royals fly-ball-prone righty Chris Young (career 1.2 HR/9 rate). The switch-hitting Beltran will bat from the left side against Young, and Yankee Stadium has proven to be especially homer-enhancing for lefty batters.
:: Fred Zinkie's Daily Picks ::
Brian McCann: In his career, the left-handed-hitting catcher has logged an .824 OPS against right-handers that exceeds his .754 mark against lefties. McCann -- who has hit 29 homers across 544 at-bats since the outset of 2015 -- could provide power from a premium position when he bats at his homer-happy home park against the long-ball-prone righty Young. In his career, Young has allowed left-handed hitters such as McCann to post a .720 OPS (.658 OPS allowed to righty batters).

Adam Eaton: From his perch atop the lineup, the outfielder will be poised to reach base often and score multiple runs when he brings his lifetime .779 OPS against right-handers (.719 vs. lefties) into a matchup at hitter-friendly Globe Life Park in Arlington against righty Colby Lewis (career 4.76 ERA, 1.37 WHIP). As a big leaguer, Lewis has allowed left-handed hitters such as Eaton to post an .817 OPS (.729 OPS allowed to righty batters).
John Jaso: Jaso has registered notable career splits, with a .796 OPS against right-handers that exceeds his .547 mark vs. lefties. The first baseman -- who owns a lifetime .361 on-base percentage -- could reach often or drive in multiple runs when he faces righty Dan Straily (career 4.49 ERA, 1.29 WHIP) at hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park.

Gregory Polanco: Polanco has registered pronounced career splits, with a .764 OPS against right-handers in comparison to a .524 mark vs. lefties. The speedy outfielder could produce in multiple ways when he faces the right-handed Straily (career 4.79 FIP) at Cincy's hitter-friendly venue. He could also succeed late in the game against a Reds relief corps that ranks 30th in the Majors with a 6.57 ERA.
Derek Dietrich: Recently tabbed as Miami's starting second baseman, Dietrich could provide power from a premium position when he brings his lifetime .789 OPS against right-handers (.611 vs. lefties) into a matchup with righty Wily Peralta (career 4.21 ERA, 1.42 WHIP) and a Brewers bullpen that ranks 25th in the Majors with a 4.61 ERA. Also of note: Milwaukee sits 28th in the big leagues with a .665 defensive efficiency ratio.
Christian Yelich: Hitting .343, the outfielder has been a notable contributor to many 2016 DraftKings squads. With a lifetime .819 OPS against right-handers (.702 vs. lefties), the outfielder has the plate skills to reach base often against Peralta (7.50 ERA, 1.93 WHIP in 2016). Yelich also possesses the speed to swipe a base against Jonathan Lucroy, who has allowed more steals than any other catcher in 2016.
Carlos Gonzalez: In his career, Gonzalez has fared best when facing right-handers (.304/.368/.564 slash line) and when batting at hitter-friendly Coors Field (.330/.390/.619 slash line). Gonzalez could provide a notable total in DraftKings contests when he hits at home against D-backs righty Archie Bradley (lifetime 6.30 ERA, 1.73 WHIP).
Gerardo Parra: Parra has long fared best vs. right-handers, against whom he has registered a lifetime .764 OPS (.610 vs. lefties). The outfielder could excel against the right-handed Bradley, who will be making his second start of the year after allowing five runs on seven hits and four walks over 4 1/3 innings in his first outing.

Jake Lamb: Since making his big league debut in 2014, the third baseman has produced a .753 OPS against right-handers that dwarfs his .560 mark vs. lefties. Lamb could drive in multiple runs when he faces the righty Chatwood (career 4.48 FIP) and a shaky Rockies bullpen at hitter-friendly Coors Field.
Addison Russell: Since making his big league debut early in the 2015 season, the shortstop has recorded a .753 OPS against right-handers that exceeds his .517 mark vs. lefties. Russell could provide production at a premium position when he tangles with Padres righty Cesar Vargas, who will be making his fourth big league start (4.37 FIP in first three).

Jose Fernandez: With a lifetime 2.59 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 10.7 K/9 rate, the right-hander is among the most dominant starters in the Senior Circuit. Fernandez could combine six-plus quality innings with a handful of strikeouts and a win when he works at his pitcher-friendly home park in a seemingly advantageous matchup with the Brewers' Peralta.
Steven Matz: The left-hander will be poised to post a notable total in DraftKings contests when he brings his impressive lifetime 2.52 ERA into a matchup with the Dodgers at their pitcher-friendly home park. Working in Matz's favor is the fact that the Dodgers rank 17th in the Majors with a .718 OPS against southpaws.
Jon Lester: With a 3.05 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP since joining the Cubs at the outset of 2015, the left-hander has proven to be among the most effective starters in the Senior Circuit. Lester could post a difference-making total in DraftKings contests when he works at home against a Padres lineup that sits 13th in the National League with 113 runs scored and second in the Majors with 292 whiffs. Also of note: Lester will be backed by a Cubs squad that leads baseball by a wide margin with a .740 defensive efficiency ratio.

Corey Kluber: With a 2.98 ERA, a 1.06 WHIP and a 10.0 K/9 rate since the outset of 2014, the right-hander is among the most effective starters in the Junior Circuit. Kluber may be worth a major expenditure in DraftKings contests when he faces an Astros lineup that leads the Majors with 298 strikeouts.
All statistics are accurate through the completion of Saturday's games.
