6 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said outfielder Joc Pederson will hit leadoff in Game 3 of the World Series against Red Sox starter Rick Porcello on Friday. Pederson typically leads off against righties, as he hit .260/.338/.556 with 24 of his 25 homers against them in the regular season. He has hit .233 (7-for-30) with a homer, one RBI and seven runs scored in 13 postseason games this year. Pederson has never faced Porcello in his career, but he'll have plenty of DFS upside as the series shifts to Los Angeles. Expect left-handed hitters Cody Bellinger and Max Muncy to be in the starting lineup as well after starting on the bench in the first two games against southpaws.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
