Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier will bat leadoff in his return to the lineup Friday night against the Seattle Mariners.
As Kiermaier trots out on to a big league diamond for the first time since early June, Mallex Smith will be the odd man out in the Rays' lineup. Facing Erasmo Ramirez, Kiermaier will bat leadoff on Friday.
The Rays carry an implied total of 4.7 runs into tonight's home game, so Kiermaier, at $2,800, could bring good value from the top spot in the order this evening.
