Carlos Beltran

Carlos Beltran starting for Astros on Friday

Houston Astros designated hitter/outfielder Carlos Beltran is starting on Friday against the Texas Rangers.

What It Means:

Beltran will start at DH and bat sixth versus Rangers left-hander Cole Hamels. George Springer will move over to right field while Josh Reddick sits on the bench.

With one of the highest implied totals (5.17 runs) on the slate in a batter-friendly matchup (10.0 over/under, 1.121 park factor), the Astros are loaded with fantasy upside on Friday. numberFire's models project Beltran to score 9.7 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,800 on Friday.
