Chris Coghlan hitting leadoff Tuesday for Chicago

Chicago Cubs utility man Chris Coghlan will bat leadoff and start in left field Tuesday versus the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Ben Zobrist hit leadoff versus lefty Jaime Garcia on Monday, but Coghlan will bat first on Tuesday with right-hander Adam Wainwright on the bump. The potential for more at-bats makes Coghlan a decent low-cost option in daily fantasy.

Coghlan is slashing .267/.389/.400 with a .333 wOBA in 18 plate appearances this season since being traded to the Cubs. Our models currently project him to hit .223/.299/.371 with seven home runs and a .292 wOBA over the remaining course of the season.
