Twins' Jason Castro starting at catcher on Friday
Minnesota Twins catcher Jason Castro is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Cleveland Indians.
What It Means:
Castro replaces Chris Gimenez behind the plate. He'll bat eighth in the order as the Twins do battle with righty Trevor Bauer.
Castro is hitting just .217 but has 5 home runs and a slugging percentage of .392 against right-handed pitching. We project him for 8.0 FanDuel points at a price of $3,000 tonight.
