Dane Myers Resting in Series Opener
Miami Marlins outfielder Dane Myers will retreat to the bench for Friday's series opener in the desert against the hosting Arizona Diamondbacks. Javier Sanoja will draw into the starting lineup in center field for the Fish and will bat ninth against Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly. Myers is hitting an even .300 (48-for-160) on the year but has gone 5-for-31 (.161) with a double and two RBI in his last eight starts, so the former sixth-rounder by the Detroit Tigers will get a mental break on Friday. The 29-year-old has very limited power but is most attractive for his speed on the bases (eight steals) in NL-only leagues. Sanoja will have minimal DFS upside as a deep sleeper on Friday night at the bottom of the batting order. The Venezuelan native has gone 37-for-156 (.237) this year in a bench role with only one long ball, 15 RBI, 18 runs scored and three stolen bases.
