Robbie Grossman in left field for Athletics versus Astros
Oakland Athletics outfielder Robbie Grossman will start in Game 4 of the American League Division Series on Thursday afternoon against right-hander Zack Greinke (arm) and the Houston Astros.
What It Means:
Grossman will play left field and hit eighth while Mark Canha shifts to right and Stephen Piscotty sits. Grossman drew a pair of walks, scored a run, and struck out off the bench Wednesday. The Athletics need a win to stay alive in this best-of-five set. Their full Game 4 lineup: Marcus Semien SS, Tommy La Stella (elbow) 2B, Chad Pinder 3B, Khris Davis DH, Matt Olson 1B, Canha RF, Ramon Laureano CF, Grossman LF, Sean Murphy C. Frankie Montas will be on the mound for Oakland.
numberFire's models expect Grossman to score 9.5 FanDuel points on Thursday with a salary of $3,000. He has gone 1-for-13 this postseason.
