De La Cruz batting sixth in Opening Day lineup
Elly De La Cruz is at shortstop and batting sixth in Thursday’s Opening Day matchup against the Nationals.
Advice: This will be new territory for the 22-year-old phenom as he did not bat in the six-hole once during the 2023 season. Fantasy managers should expect another solid season from De La Cruz as he’ll showcase his power and speed in a full 162-game season. Here’s the full Opening Day lineup for the Reds: Jonathan India 2B, Will Benson CF, Christian Encarnacion-Strand 1B, Jeimer Candelario 3B, Jake Fraley RF, Elly De La Cruz SS, Spencer Steer LF, Nick Martini, DH, Tyler Stephenson C, Frankie Montas SP.
