Mitch Moreland back in Athletics' lineup Tuesday
Oakland Athletics designated hitter Mitch Moreland is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against right-hander Reynaldo Lopez and the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
The Athletics faced lefties in each of the last two games and Moreland was held out of both lineups. He is batting sixth as Oakland's DH on Tuesday. Jed Lowrie is shifting back to second base and batting cleanup while Josh Harrison hops out to left field. Mark Canha is starting in right in place of an idle Stephen Piscotty.
numberFire’s models project Moreland for 11.8 FanDuel points and he has a $3,100 salary on Tuesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Athletics' implied total is 4.3 runs and Lopez is registering a 30.1 strikeout percentage with a 6.8 walk percentage this season.
