Brian Dozier

Brian Dozier returns to Twins' lineup on Tuesday

Minnesota Twins second baseman Brian Dozier is starting versus the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday.

What It Means:

After going a combined 0-for-8 with 4 strikeouts on Friday and Saturday, Dozier was given a breather and then the Twins had a scheduled off-day, so he should be well rested for tonight's series opener. The 31-year-old will lead off the order versus Tigers left-hander Blaine Hardy while Eduardo Escobar covers the hot corner and Miguel Sano plays designated hitter. Robbie Grossman will be available off the Twins' bench.

numberFire's models project Dozier to score 13.0 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,100 on Tuesday.
