Pedro Alvarez

Orioles' Pedro Alvarez is in the lineup on Friday

Baltimore Orioles designated hitter Pedro Alvarez will get the start on Friday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

It will be Alvarez's first start of the season. He's been limited to pinch-hitter duties since getting called up from Triple-A at the start of the month. Mark Trumbo will move out to right field, and Seth Smith will return to the bench.

Our models project Alvarez to score 9.9 FanDuel points. He costs the minimum $2,000 and is eligible at outfielder.
