Mitch Moreland

Boston's Mitch Moreland is sitting on Friday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland is out of the club's lineup Friday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

As the Yankees run out lefty Jordan Montgomery, the lefty-hitting Moreland will fall to the bench as righty Chris Young enters the lineup at DH. He will slide into the sixth spot in the order while Hanley Ramirez plays first base and hits cleanup.

numberFire's models project Moreland to rack up 5 home runs, 7 doubles and 18 RBI across 145 plate appearances the remainder of the season.
