Kyle Manzardo Sitting In Game 5
2 months agoCleveland Guardians first baseman/designated hitter Kyle Manzardo is not in the starting nine for Game 5 of the ALCS. Manzardo has tallied a hit in each of the past three games in the ALCS but will take a seat as the Yankees send out southpaw Carlos Rodon in hopes of clinching the series victory. As a result, David Fry will serve as the designated hitter, and Josh Naylor will cover first base. During the postseason, the former second-round pick has carried an impressive .294/.294/.529 line with one home run and two RBI. Manzardo will likely be deployed as a pinch-hitter later in the game, but it is best to leave out of your DFS lineup as he may only get one at-bat.
