Trent Grisham Batting Leadoff For Thursday's Opening Day
2 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham is leading off the batting order for Thursday's Opening Day game against the Colorado Rockies. The 26-year-old struggled mightily at the dish in 2022, batting a league-worst .184. Although, he still provided 17 homers and seven stolen bases over 152 games with 58 runs and 53 RBI. Grisham also had a fantastic Spring Training, where he slashed .271/.357/.604 with four home runs. If this is a trend that'll continue, fantasy managers might want to think about picking up the lefty on the waiver wire. Grisham will likely contribute double-digit dingers and steals while playing every day, and batting first for one of the best lineups in baseball means plenty of counting stats.
