Bryan Reynolds Returns to Lineup Thursday
5 years agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds, who did not start but came off the bench in each of the past two games, returns to his second spot in the batting order on Thursday against the Atlanta Braves. None of the four starting pitchers across the tiny two-game early slate should scare many DFS players, so the platoon advantage and spot in the batting order take on more importance. Pittsburgh faces Julio Teheran, whose 3.03 ERA is belied by a 4.83 xFIP, making Reynolds a good option. The switch-hitting Reynolds has hit both lefties and righties well on his way to a .340/.392/.542 slash line through his first 47 career games this season.
