Brandon Crawford returns to Giants lineup Friday

San Francisco Giants infielder Brandon Crawford is back in the staring lineup for Friday's series opener against right-hander Zach Plesac and the Cleveland Guardians.

What It Means:

Crawford is returning to shortstop in place of Mauricio Dubon and batting fifth. Dubon started on Wednesday against a left-hander while Crawford took a breather.

numberFire’s models project Crawford for 13.9 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,500 salary. He is currently the second-best point-per-dollar value on our board among hitters.
