Brian McCann at catcher as Astros take on Texas
Houston Astros catcher Brian McCann is starting on Friday night versus the Texas Rangers.
McCann will catch Astros right-hander Charlie Morton and bat seventh versus Rangers left-hander Cole Hamels. Juan Centeno will be available off the bench after starting on Thursday.
With one of the highest implied totals (5.17 runs) on the slate in a batter-friendly matchup (10.0 over/under, 1.121 park factor), the Astros are loaded with fantasy upside on Friday. numberFire's models project McCann to score 10.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,600 on Friday, giving him lots of appeal.
