Jedd Gyorko (groin) returns to lineup on Thursday for St. Louis

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Jedd Gyorko (groin) is starting against the Miami Marlins on Thursday afternoon.

What It Means:

Gyorko has been out of the lineup for the past two games due to a mild groin strain, but he'll start at third base and bat cleanup on Thursday versus Marlins right-hander Tom Koehler. He owns a .301/.367/.516 slash with 12 home runs and 42 RBI in 74 games (289 plate appearances) this season. Greg Garcia is at shortstop and Paul DeJong is on the bench for St. Louis.

The Cardinals own one of the highest implied totals of the day (5.16 runs), so they have a lineup worth targeting for fantasy purposes. numberFire's models project Gyorko to score 11.8 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500.
