Eduardo Escobar batting second for Minnesota
Minnesota Twins designated hitter Eduardo Escobar has moved up to second in the batting order against the Boston Red Sox on Monday.
What It Means:
Escobar has spent the last four games batting out of the five-hole, but with Joe Mauer out of the lineup tonight, Escobar will bump up to second in the order against Boston's Chris Sale.
Escobar has a big .429 wOBA against lefties this season, but even with the move up in the order, his fantasy value is severely capped in tonight's tough matchup against Sale, which leaves the Twins with the lowest implied total on the slate (3.52).
