Chris Davis To Start Saturday
6 years agoBaltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis, in the midst of a historically-awful slump, will return to the lineup Saturday against right-hander Rick Porcello. The decision was announced Friday by manager Brandon Hyde. Davis has been mostly on the bench the last couple of games, as he finds himself in the midst of the worst hitting stretch in baseball history, having gone 53 consecutive plate appearances without a hit. At this point, the 33-year-old should be a fantasy baseball non-entity, as he's a shell of his former self. However, a couple of days on the bench have served him well.
