Giovanny Urshela Sitting Out Tuesday
6 years agoNew York Yankees third baseman Giovanny Urshela is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday. Thairo Estrada is covering second base and is batting eighth, while DJ LeMahieu is at third base and hitting leadoff against Padres starting pitcher Eric Lauer. Estrada has hit well in his 44 at-bats this year (.318/.348/.591), but there's not much upside in the counting stats in DFS contests while hitting near the bottom of the order. LeMahieu is much more attractive out of the top spot. LeMahieu has done nothing but hit (.316/.364/.433) and has four home runs, 32 runs, 27 RBI and two stolen bases. He's also hitting .400 (14-for-35) against lefties in 2019.
