Phillies' Adam Haseley starting against southpaw

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Adam Haseley will start in center field and bat eighth against left-hander Max Fried and the Atlanta Braves on Thursday.

What It Means:

Haseley and Roman Quinn were expected to form a platoon in center field, so it's notable that the left-handed Haseley is starting on Opening Day against a southpaw. Here is the Phillies' full lineup: Andrew McCutchen LF, Rhys Hoskins 1B, Bryce Harper RF, J.T. Realmuto C, Alec Bohm 3B, Didi Gregorius SS, Jean Segura 2B, Haseley CF, Aaron Nola SP.

numberFire’s models project Haseley for 8.3 FanDuel points versus the Braves and he has a salary of $2,100 on Opening Day. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Phillies' implied total is 3.9 runs.
