Chase Utley

Chase Utley starting, leading off for Dodgers against Braves

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Chase Utley is starting on Thursday night versus the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Utley will start at second base and lead off against Braves right-hander Mike Foltynewicz. Logan Forsythe is likely just getting a breather.

The Dodgers are heavy favorites and have an attractive implied total (5.00 runs), so they carry decent fantasy appeal into tonight's matchup. numberFire's models project Utley to score 9.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,300 on Thursday, making him a recommended value play.
