Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez is sticking with outfielder Bryce Harper in the leadoff spot again on Friday against the Phillies. Harper's fantasy owners should be happy seeing him in the leadoff spot, as it gives him the most at-bats in one of the league's most potent lineups. Harper faces off against Philadelphia's Nick Pivetta, who has been excellent this season, striking out 34 batters in 33 innings. Pivetta has posted a 2.79 ERA in his last five starts. However, Harper rakes against right-handed pitching. In 2018 thus far, his OPS against righties is a staggering 1.187. Look for Harper to keep rolling in the leadoff spot.--Phil Goyette
