Xander Bogaerts Resting Wednesday
6 years agoBoston Red Sox manager Alex Cora is giving shortstop Xander Bogaerts the day off on Wednesday after he took a foul ball off his left ankle/shin on Tuesday night. Infielder Brock Holt will start at shortstop, with Eduardo Nunez at second base against A's starting pitcher Marco Estrada. While Holt provides better defense with the glove, Nunez is the more attractive DFS play for his stick in a positive matchup, albeit in a pitcher-friendly environment in Oakland.
