Jonathan Schoop sitting for Tigers Monday afternoon
Detroit Tigers first baseman Jonathan Schoop is not in the starting lineup for Monday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Brad Keller and the Kansas City Royals.
Schoop appears to be getting a regular maintenance day. Harold Castro will make the start on first base and bat second for Detroit. It will be the first time Castro hits higher than sixth this season. Miguel Cabrera will bat third as the Tigers' designated hitter.
Keller owns the second-lowest strikeout percentage (13.0) and fourth-highest walk percentage (13.0) out of the 22 listed starting pitchers on Monday, per numberFire's MLB Heat Map. Castro has a salary of $2,000 on Monday's full slate and our models project him to score 9.7 FanDuel points.
