Delino DeShields Will Stay In Leadoff Role
7 years agoTexas Rangers center fielder Delino DeShields will continue to get run at the top of the order after returning to the lineup. The 25-year-old has only appeared in four games on the season thanks to injury, but the Rangers have a lot of faith that his speed and contact skills will make him an ideal place setter for the rest of the order. DeShields picked up his first two steals and first multi-hit game of the season against the A's, and if nothing else should provide a good source of stolen bases for the duration of 2018, assuming he can stay healthy.
