Chase Headley

Chase Headley starts for the Yankees

For the first time this season, the presumed Yankees Opening Day infield was in the lineup on Friday afternoon. Chase Headley finished 0-2 with a walk and two strikeouts.

Fantasy Impact:

Headley provides upside at 3B, mainly because the Yankees lineup will be better in 2015 and he is coming off of a down year in 2014. Either Brett Gardner or Jacoby Ellsbury will lead off and Headley is the presumed second batter in the lineup, this could give Headley a big opportunity for RBI with that much speed ahead of him in the lineup. He could be a top-10 3B rather than a top-15 3B, especially with a weak 3B crop in 2015.
