John Hicks

John Hicks starting at first base Wednesday for Tigers

Detroit Tigers first baseman/catcher John Hicks is starting at first base Wednesday against the Texas Rangers.

What It Means:

Hicks is in a really nice spot on Wednesday hitting fifth. Even if it is against lefty Cole Hamels, Hicks is coming off a nice 3-for-4 day with 2 runs scored, so maybe he can keep it going against the southpaw tonight.

Our models project Hicks for 11.9 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,100. He is numberFire's top value play on Wednesday night.
