Hunter Pence The DH On Opening Night

4 years agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder Hunter Pence (foot) is serving as the designated hitter and is batting fifth on Thursday night against Dodgers right-handed starter Dustin May. Pence was dealing with some foot inflammation in the last part of summer camp, but he's clearly fine to hit to open the regular season. The universal DH in the National League this year boost's Pence's fantasy stock a bit in deep mixed and NL-only leagues, but nobody should really be expecting him to repeat his .297/.358/.552 slash line last year with Texas, which included 18 home runs, 59 RBI, 53 runs and six stolen bases in 316 plate appearances. Pence will be facing LA's No. 2 prospect in May on Thursday night.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
