5 years agoHouston Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez is out of the team's lineup Wednesday, his first off day since being called up on June 9. The Astros are visiting the Cincinnati Reds and thus without their designated hitter, which has been Alvarez's job several times since his call-up. The Astros are going with an outfield of Michael Brantley, Josh Reddick, and Jake Marisnick against Reds starting pitcher Tyler Mahle. Brantley and Reddick are batting second and fourth, respectively, and both have the platoon advantage against Mahle. They could make for strong DFS plays Wednesday.--Nathaniel Green
