Nick Senzel Bats Leadoff For Game 1 Wednesday
4 years agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel has become the team’s preferred center field option against left-handed pitching down the stretch, but he was shifted to the leadoff spot for the first time since Aug. 11 for Game 1 of the wild-card series versus Atlanta and left-handed pitcher Max Fried on Wednesday. Senzel’s spot atop the lineup card garners him some significant DFS appeal, although the possibility that the Reds utilize a replacement for him at some point exists. Injuries marred Senzel’s 2020 regular-season campaign as he finished with a .604 OPS.
