Pirates activate Starling Marte (oblique) for Saturday start

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte has been activated and will start Saturday's home game against the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Marte is returning in his first eligible game since suffering an oblique injury. In his first start since May 15, he'll man center and hit third against St. Louis' Jack Flaherty. Austin Meadows exits the lineup, though it appears he'll remain with the big league club.

At $3,000, Marte is projected for 8.9 FanDuel points in 4.4 plate appearances.
