Padres put Manny Margot at top of order for the season opener

San Diego Padres outfielder Manuel Margot will hit leadoff in Monday's season opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Alex Dickerson's (back) eventual return could change things, but at least for now, Margot will have the opportunity to show off his speed for fantasy owners. He swiped 30 bags in 124 games (566 plate appearances) for Triple-A El Paso last season.

numberFire's algorithms project Margot to record a .256 batting average, 9 home runs, 49 RBI's and 24 stolen bases across 493 plate appearances this season.
