Joc Pederson Not In Saturday's Lineup
3 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Joc Pederson will be on the bench to start Saturday's game. Pederson has generally been starting in center field for Atlanta against right-handed pitchers but will head to the bench as the team matches up with Washington Nationals left-hander Patrick Corbin. Pederson is batting .241 with a .317 on-base percentage, 14 home runs, and two stolen bases this season. Guillermo Heredia is starting for the former Dodgers slugger in center field and batting eighth. Fantasy managers are probably best off looking elsewhere for streaming help in the outfield on Saturday. Heredia is batting .236 with a .314 on-base percentage and five home runs in 290 plate appearances this season.
