Ryan Braun

Ryan Braun (back) activated, back in Thursday's lineup for Milwaukee

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun is returning to the lineup for Thursday night's matchup against the New York Mets.

What It Means:

Braun was activated from the 10-day DL after dealing with middle back tightness. He will return to play in his first game since May 13. He hits third while he replaces Travis Shaw and sends Hernan Perez to third base for tonight's game.

Against starter Steven Matz, we project Braun for 12.8 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,900.
