3 years agoMinnesota Twins second baseman Jorge Polanco is hitting leadoff on Monday against Boston Red Sox left-hander Rich Hill. With Byron Buxton (knee) still sidelined, Polanco will get his first start in the leadoff spot in the Patriots Day game in Boston. It'll give the 28-year-old a chance at an extra at-bat or two, but he'll also lose some valuable RBI opportunities for DFS gamers. Polanco hasn't been that hot to start the season, going 6-for-30 with a home run, three RBI and four runs scored in his first nine games. Luis Arraez, who has hit leadoff for the Twins the last two games, will start Monday's matinee contest on the bench.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
