Mike Napoli sits in the season opener

Mike Napoli (1B - FA)

Mike Napoli will not be in the starting lineup when Boston opens its season in Philadelphia on Monday.

Fantasy Impact
Playing the Phillies in their home park means no DH for the Red Sox. That means a move of David Ortiz to first base and Mike Napoli sits. Napoli will not play much in the series and should be benched if you own him. Once Boston gets on their normal schedule, Napoli should be the regular first baseman with Ortiz as DH.
