Carlos Beltran misses game, has good matchup on Saturday

An afternoon game for the Yankees meant that a lot of everyday starters sat; one of those players was RF Carlos Beltran. He pinch hit for Dustin Ackley in the ninth inning, but was benched in favor of new Yankee Aaron Hicks.
Fantasy Impact:
Although Carlos Beltran only has a .231 batting average in 13 at-bats this season, he has already clubbed a home run this season and has a very good opportunity on Saturday. Beltran only has three career at-bats Tigers starter Mike Pelfrey, but has two hits against the 32-year-old, including a double. The Yankees right fielder could be a good DFS play on Saturday, judging his matchup and that the Yankees should have a full complement of players in the lineup.
