Jason Kipnis hitting second as Indians face the Rays

Cleveland Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis is batting second in the series-opener with the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday.

What It Means:

Kipnis has led off the last three games but drops a spot in the order with southpaw Blake Snell on the hill for the Rays. Francisco Lindor will bat first on Thursday.

Our models think Kipnis will still be a great value play on Thursday as we project 12.1 FanDuel points while the second baseman carries a price tag of just $2,700 versus Snell and the Rays.
