Danny Espinosa

Danny Espinosa starting on Monday for Rays

Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Danny Espinosa is starting on Monday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

Brad Miller will be on the bench against Yankees southpaw CC Sabathia, so Espinosa will get the start at second base. He's batting eighth for Tampa Bay.

With a weak implied total (3.98 runs) in a pitcher-friendly matchup (8.5 over/under, 0.929 park factor), the Rays' lineup might not offer much fantasy upside on Monday. That said, Espinosa could be worth a look as a value play for DFS, as numberFire's models project him to score 8.2 FanDuel points at a cost of only $2,200.
