Will Smith Starting Against Nationals
3 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is back in the lineup for Saturday night's game, batting fifth against Nationals right-hander Paolo Espino in Washington. Friday's starting catcher Austin Barnes is on the bench, while outfielder AJ Pollock, who homered Friday after coming in as a pinch-hitter, is starting and batting eighth. Espino has been solid this year, pitching to a 2.02 ERA and 0.87 WHIP, mostly out of the bullpen. Even so, Smith, who is slashing .263/.364/.838 this season, makes for a strong DFS play, considering his .988 OPS against righties.
