Facing an NL opponent on the road today, the Blue Jays lose their usual four-hitter in designated hitter Kendrys Morales. Therefore, Pearce will slide up a spot to hit fourth against the Cubs' Jake Arrieta.

With a career .379 wOBA and .247 ISO from the cleanup spot, our models project Pearce for 8.8 FanDuel points at $3,500 on the early slate.

As the Blue Jays transition to an NL ballpark in Chicago, they'll forfeit their DH spot, meaning Kendrys Morales is out this afternoon.

After going 1-for-4 with a double in yesterday's game, Morales is projected for 6 dingers, 21 RBI and a .257 average the rest of the season.

Having spelled Jose Bautista on Thursday afternoon, Aoki will make way for Bautista's return to the lineup today in Chicago.

In his part-time role, our models like Aoki to add 21 hits, 7 RBI and 10 runs over the remainder of the 2017 season.

After getting a routine night off on Thursday, Bautista will return to play right and hit lead off against the Cubs' Jake Arrieta. As he does so, he'll send Nori Aoki back to Toronto's bench.

Bautista is 0-for-13 in 18 career plate appearances against today's starter. And, if that wasn't enough to scare you away, the Blue Jays have an implied total of just 4.02 runs this afternoon at Wrigley.

Caratini will catch right-hander Jake Arrieta and bat sixth versus Blue Jays southpaw J.A. Happ, who has been dominant as of late (1.45 ERA over last three starts). Alex Avila will be available off the bench for the defending champs.

numberFire's models project Caratini to score only 4.6 FanDuel points versus Happ and the Blue Jays, lowest among every batter on our board for today's full 15-game slate.

Cobb has been out of action with turf toe since August 5, but he made it through a 40-pitch bullpen session without issue on Wednesday, and he's scheduled to throw another on Saturday.

Despite a decent 3.80 ERA, Cobb has had a shaky year, posting a 4.72 SIERA through 23 games. numberFire's models project him for a 4.12 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over the remainder of the season.
