Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs. The Dodgers will give Pages the night off after going 0-for-6 with three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. In his absence, Tommy Edman will cover center field while Miguel Rojas takes over second base versus right-hander Colin Rea. Pages has been quiet early in the season with only seven hits, two homers, and two RBI to begin the year.

Los Angeles Dodgers rookie outfielder Andy Pages smashed two homers on Friday night en route to going 3-for-4 at the plate in the Dodgers' 12-6 loss to the New York Mets in Game 5 of the National League Division Series. Pages collected four RBI and scored three runs in his big night, though it wasn't enough to overcome the Mets' offensive outburst. Pages has generally been used by the Dodgers in a platoon role against lefties and is now hitting for a 1.047 OPS in 14 at-bats this postseason. He'll likely be in Los Angeles' lineup on Sunday in Game 6 with lefty Sean Manaea expected to be on the hill for New York. Pages went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts in Manaea's start in Game 2. DFS managers can look at Pages as a cheap option for their lineup but shouldn't expect a ton given Manaea's effectiveness after the All-Star break.

Los Angeles Dodgers rookie outfielder Andy Pages will start in center field and bat out of the nine-hole for Game 5 of the National League Championship Series on Friday at Citi Field against the New York Mets and left-hander David Peterson. Pages also got the start in the Game 4 win on Thursday and went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in the 10-2 victory. In his first six playoff appearances for the Dodgers this year, Pages has just one single in 11 plate appearances with four strikeouts and a hit-by-pitch. He faced Peterson twice during the regular season and had a single and an RBI. The 23-year-old Cuban outfielder went 35-for-98 (.357) with three of his 13 home runs during the regular season against left-handed pitchers, perhaps making him a DFS sleeper worth looking at on Friday.
