Matt Carpenter, Yadier Molina, Dexter Fowler Out Thursday
6 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter, catcher Yadier Molina (hand) and outfielder Dexter Fowler are all out of the starting lineup on Thursday. Jedd Gyorko is at third base and is hitting seventh, Matt Wieters is hitting sixth and catching and Jose Martinez gets the start in right field and is hitting fifth against Phillies starter Jerad Eickhoff. Kolten Wong also moves into the leadoff spot, giving him low-priced sleeper appeal in DFS formats. Wieters homered while filling in for the injured Molina on Wednesday, but he's still a low-ceiling daily selection. Martinez is hitting .303 (46-for-152) on the year with three homers and 21 RBI and isn't a terrible selection on this day.
