Jose Pirela is leading off Thursday for Padres

San Diego Padres second baseman Jose Pirela is back in the starting lineup and leading off against the San Francisco Giants on Thursday.

What It Means:

Manuel Margot is on the paternity leave list, so Pirela will take over as the leadoff man Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. He'll square off against southpaw Madison Bumgarner.

Our models project Pirela to post 10.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $5,300.
