Boston's J.D. Martinez (back) scratched on Saturday, Travis Shaw batting eighth
Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (back) is not starting in Saturday's lineup against the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
Martinez will miss his second straight game after Boston's slugger was scratched with back spasms. Travis Shaw will handle designated hitting duties and bat eighth against Chicago right-hander Dylan Cease.
Our models project Shaw to score 9.5 FanDuel points at the salary of $2,400.
