Mitch Moreland Returns to Red Sox Lineup
6 years agoBoston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (back) is returning to the lineup on Saturday against the Kansas City Royals. Moreland has missed the past two games with back spasms. Steve Pearce draws out of the lineup with Moreland starting at first base and batting fourth. Royals pitcher Brad Keller is in for a tough test against the potent Red Sox squad, but the righty has a sparkling 2.09 ERA on the season through 56 innings. Moreland is a reliable fantasy option as evidenced by his .288 average, 11 home runs, and 40 RBI. He should be an everyday fantasy starter solely due to his placement in the Red Sox order.
