Salvador Perez back in the Royals' lineup on Tuesday
Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez is back in the lineup for Tuesday's home game against the Boston Red Sox.
What It Means:
Perez got the day off for Monday's series-opener, but he'll be back in the lineup and batting fifth against Red Sox' ace Chris Sale. This sends Drew Butera back to the bench.
Perez has only managed a .296 wOBA against lefties this season, and he's a weak fantasy option against Sale and his league-leading 2.52 SIERA.
