There's a nice balance of aces and value pitchers for your daily fantasy baseball lineups Sunday. You can pay up for Stephen Strasburg or Felix Hernandez (we're fading Matt Harvey a bit today against the Yankees) or look for the value plays like the red-hot Collin McHugh (vs. A's), Kevin Gausman (at Rays), Julio Teheran (vs. Phillies) or Aaron Nola (at Braves) in favorable matchups.
If you do pay up for an ace, we've got you covered with a few value hitters to help round out your DFS lineup. Good luck today, and also make sure to check out the best daily fantasy baseball picks from Fantasy Alarm.

Saves Sleepers
Huston Street picked up a save in both ends of Saturday's doubleheader. Don't be surprised if someone else -- maybe Fernando Salas or Jose Alvarez -- gets the call in a save situation today.
Weather Watch
It should be a clear day around the league, so don't worry about rain outs.
