Raimel Tapia in Rockies' starting lineup on Thursday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Raimel Tapia is starting in left for Thursday's home game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

What It Means:

Tapia's presence moves Ian Desmond to first, as Mark Reynolds heads to the bench. He'll bat sixth against righty Zack Godley.

In a small sample size, Tapia's .341/.400/.439 slash looks promising. He's projected for 8.8 FanDuel points in this afternoon's matchup.
