Meanwhile, the Rays stack the deck to try to out Sale. Heading into the final game of a three-game set, here are today’s lineups.

The Atlanta Braves run out a fairly standard lineup, with Eli White out in left instead of Bryan de la Cruz. Nick Allen continues to get some run out there as he’s hitting .346/.370/.423 (126 wRC+) on the young season. The .450 BABIP screams that it won’t continue, but he’s a fun player who is also playing really strong defense and has stolen a couple bases.
The Rays, meanwhile, have stacked their lineup with righties to counter Sale. Jake Mangum, not Magnum like autocorrect seems to keep trying to do to me, should probably be on your radar for fantasy league purposes as he plays all 3 OF positions, doesn’t strike out, and has 5 stolen bases on the season.
