Mitch Garver At Designated Hitter And Batting Third
5 years agoMinnesota Twins catcher Mitch Garver is serving as the team's designated hitter on Thursday and batting third. Catcher Willians Astudillo is behind the plate batting ninth. Also of interest is C.J. Cron dropping to eighth in the order. Minnesota is facing Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer, who has a 3.76 ERA and 27.0 K% in what is a disappointment so far after his dominant 2018 season (2.21 ERA, 30.8 K%). Bauer is still dangerous, but with a premium spot in a strong Twins lineup, Garver is an interesting DFS option at the right price. Don't bother with Astudillo or Cron, however.
