Evan Gattis

Astros' Evan Gattis starting at catcher Saturday

Houston Astros catcher Evan Gattis is in the starting lineup for Saturday's road game against the Baltimore Orioles.

What It Means:

With Brian McCann starting the team's last two games behind the dish, it's Gattis getting the nod Saturday for coach A.J. Hinch. He bats fifth against righty Chris Tillman.

Surprisingly, Gattis has tallied a .387 wOBA with 7 bombs in 160 plate appearances against right-handed pitching this season. His Astros hold the second-highest implied total, at 5.92 runs, this evening.
