Rangers starting Brett Nicholas at catcher
Texas Rangers catcher Brett Nicholas will start Thursday's home game against the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
Robinson Chirinos is getting a routine day off, and Nicholas will handle catching duties in his absence while batting ninth against White Sox righty Reynaldo Lopez.
Priced at minimum-salary ($2,000) on FanDuel while the Rangers' 6.02 implied total is the main slate's highest mark, Nicholas offers some appealing upside despite his weak .276 wOBA through 6 big league games this season.
