Mike Moustakas Back In The Lineup Tuesday
1 year agoColorado Rockies first baseman/designated hitter Mike Moustakas is back in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Boston Red Sox. This marks the veteran's first start since Friday as he as he has gone hitless in a pinch-hitting appearance in each of the club's last three contests. The former Royals, Brewers, and Reds infielder is hitting .250 with three homers and a decent .742 OPS on the season but his 86 wRC+ leaves much to be desired as that metric bakes in the Coors Field factor into its equation. However, the 34-year-old went 2-for-4 with a homer and an additional run scored in his most recent start and will hit seventh and play first base against Red Sox righty Kutter Crawford on Tuesday night in Boston.
