Adrian Beltre

Adrian Beltre (ankle) returns to the Rangers' lineup Saturday

Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre (ankle) is starting at third and batting cleanup Saturday against the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Beltre just recently came off the disabled list, and he got the day off yesterday as Jurickson Profar played third base. Beltre is back in there today against Washington lefty Gio Gonzalez.

Beltre has long been a lefty killer, and he mashed his way to a .418 wOBA, 41.2% hard-hit rate and 40.3% fly-ball rate against southpaws in 2016. Texas has a solid 4.08 implied total, and our models have Beltre -- who is $3,700 -- projected for 11.1 FanDuel points.
