Austin Barnes went 3-for-4 with a homer, two singles, and two runs scored in the Dodgers' 12-5 win over the Diamondbacks on Opening Day.

Fantasy Impact:

Barnes' homer was one of the eight Los Angeles hit today. The 29-year-old was mostly forgotten about in drafts this spring, but he makes for an interesting option for any fantasy team struggling at catcher. Manager Dave Roberts says Barnes will get 60% of the starts behind the plate this season, but that could increase if he hits well.
