Albert Pujols To Serve As DH On Opening Day
3 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals first baseman/designated hitter Albert Pujols will serve as the DH on Opening Day on Thursday, April 7, against the Pittsburgh Pirates and starter JT Brubaker. The future Hall of Famer will return to the team that he started his career with for one last season. The 42-year-old doesn't have much fantasy appeal at this stage in his career, but he'll occasionally be worth a look as a low-cost DFS play in good matchups like the one he has on Opening Day. In 109 games with the Los Angeles Angels and Los Angeles Dodgers last year, Pujols hit .236/.284/.433 with 17 home runs, 50 RBI and 29 runs scored in 296 plate appearances in a part-time role.
