Mike Moustakas (biceps) activated, at DH Thursday for Reds

The Cincinnati Reds activated third baseman Mike Moustakas (biceps) from the 10-day injured list on Thursday.

What It Means:

Moustakas spent the minimum time required on the IL. He is starting at designated hitter and batting seventh in Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Nick Martinez and the San Diego Padres. Brandon Drury is shifting to second base in place of an idle Jonathan India and hitting sixth. The Reds placed Nick Lodolo (back) on the 10-day IL in a corresponding roster move.

numberFire’s models project Moustakas for 8.3 FanDuel points on Thursday, and he has a $2,200 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Reds have the fifth-highest implied total (4.32) out of the 20 teams on the Main slate.
