Salvador Perez not in Royals' lineup on Saturday
Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez is not in the lineup Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels.
What It Means:
Perez is riding a nine-game hitting streak and despite being red-hot at the plate, he will get a night off on Saturday. Drew Butera is behind the plate and he will hit ninth against Alex Meyer. Expect Perez to return to catch Sunday's matinee.
Our models project Butera for 7.1 FanDuel points at a salary of $2,100 tonight.
