Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Wander Franco (neck) is in the Rays’ lineup for Friday’s showdown against the Yankees. It’s a massive relief for the Rays and fantasy managers that Franco is feeling well enough to play on Friday evening after making an early exit from Thursday’s contest against the Yankees with neck spasms. The 22-year-old franchise cornerstone has been simply magnificent this season, batting .318/.374/.554 with 23 runs scored, seven homers, 23 RBI and 12 stolen bases across 163 plate appearances through 37 games.
New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Anthony Volpe has been dropped to seventh in the Yankees’ lineup Friday against the Rays. Volpe went 0-for-4 on Thursday after hitting his first career grand slam on Wednesday and has just two hits in his last 27 at-bats, giving him a .199 batting average and a .292 on-base percentage for the year. It’s about time to take some pressure off the rookie shortstop. Gleyber Torres will hit leadoff on Friday.
