Adalberto Mondesi on Royals' bench Thursday

Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi is not starting in Thursday afternoon's series finale versus right-hander Lucas Giolito and the Chicago White Sox.

What It Means:

It looks like a routine rest day for Mondesi, who went 3-for-5 with a 2-run homer, 2 steals, and 3 runs scored Wednesday against the White Sox. Nicky Lopez is covering shortstop in Thursday's matinee and batting ninth.

numberFire's models expect Mondesi to score 6.3 FanDuel points on Thursday. He's priced at $2,100. numberFire's models also expect Lopez to record 3 RBI and 4 runs scored in 40 plate appearances over the rest of the season.
