Yordan Alvarez (ankle) batting third in Houston's Friday lineup

Houston Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez (ankle) is starting in Friday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

What It Means:

Alvarez will make his return after the Houston's slugger was forced to sit on Thursday with an ankle injury, Christian Vazquez was moved behind the plate, and Martin Maldonado was given the night off.

In a matchup against Tampa Bay's right-hander Drew Rasmussen, our models project Alvarez to score 12.2 FanDuel points at the salary of $4,300.
