Michael Saunders

Blue Jays' Michael Saunders is in Friday's starting lineup

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Michael Saunders is back in the lineup for the team's Friday matchup with the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

With Saunders in the lineup, Jose Bautista will serve as the designated hitter as Justin Smoak ultimately leaves today's order for Toronto. As he plays right field, Saunders will hit fifth against the Yankees' Masahiro Tanaka.

Hitting just .212 against right-handed pitching, Saunders is projected for 8.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,000 on today's early slate.
