Francisco Cervelli to Play First Base on Monday
6 years agoPittsburgh Pirates catcher Francisco Cervelli will slide over to first base for Monday's contest against the Colorado Rockies. Josh Bell (oblique) is still sidelined, so the Pirates are looking for ways to fill the void at first base. Cervelli has not played much first base during his career, but will do it on Monday against lefty Kyle Freeland. Cervelli will bat fifth in this contest, but there is not much pop in the Pirates batting order. However, playing in Coors Field should help with that. Cervelli is worth a look in DFS while he's hitting in Colorado.
