Odor served as the leadoff hitter against right-handed Nathan Eovaldi on Monday.
Analysis:
Delino DeShields, who had hit leadoff 16 times this season, served as the #9 hitter in Monday's contest. It remains to be seen if Odor atop the lineup against righties will remain beyond just the single game, but it would provide a nice boost for Odor if the arrangement sticks.
