Royals leave Hunter Dozier (thumb) off of Monday lineup

The Kansas City Royals did not list Hunter Dozier (thumb) as a starter for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels.

What It Means:

Dozier has been dealing with a persistent thumb injury since the season began, and was not listed in the team's lineup for today's game after leaving yesterday's game early. Hanser Alberto will replace him at third base and bat eighth.

Alberto has a $2,200 salary for today's slate on FanDuel and is projected to score 8.5 fantasy points. He's batting .286 so far this season with a .786 OPS.
