Andres Blanco starting at third base on Monday for Philadelphia
Philadelphia Phillies infielder Andres Blanco is starting against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday.
This will be Blanco's first start since June 6. He's manning second base and batting sixth against Pirates right-hander Ivan Nova. Aaron Altherr and Ty Kelly are on the Phillies' bench.
The Phillies only have an implied total of 4.39 runs in a game with a low expected total (8.5), so they don't offer too much fantasy appeal. Blanco is projected for 8.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,000 on Monday.
