Steven Souza down to third in the Rays' batting order
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Steven Souza will bat third against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday.
What It Means:
Souza got to bat leadoff with Mallex Smith out of the lineup on Tuesday, but he'll slide down to third in the order -- replacing Evan Longoria, who is getting the day off -- while Smith reclaims the leadoff spot against Reds' righty Tim Adleman this afternoon.
Souza has an excellent .410 wOBA against righties this season, and with the Rays' sporting a strong 5.03 implied total, he's a viable fantasy option at $3,800 on FanDuel.
