Jesus Aguilar batting third on Opening Day for Marlins
Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar will bat third on Opening Day against right-hander Tyler Glasnow and the Tampa Bay Rays.
What It Means:
Aguilar hit 14-for-40 (.350) in Grapefruit League play with 2 home runs and 2 doubles while drawing 6 walks with 1 strikeout. Garrett Cooper is not in the Opening Day lineup but he will cost Aguilar some playing time throughout the season. The Marlins' full lineup to start the year: Corey Dickerson LF, Starling Marte CF, Aguilar 1B, Adam Duvall RF, Brian Anderson 3B, Jazz Chisholm 2B, Jorge Alfaro C, Miguel Rojas SS, Sandy Alcantara SP.
numberFire’s models project Aguilar for 10.5 FanDuel points versus the Rays and he has a salary of $2,600 on Opening Day. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Marlins have the third-lowest implied total (3.4 runs) out of the 26 teams playing.
