Santiago Espnial sitting Tuesday for Toronto
Toronto Blue Jays infielder Santiago Espinal is not in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Corey Kluber and the New York Yankees.
What It Means:
Joe Panik will start on third base in place of Espinal and hit eighth. It will be Panik's first action since activated off the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain. He will likely take playing time away from Espinal while Cavan Biggio (spine) remains out.
numberFire’s models project Panik for 6.6 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Tuesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Blue Jays have an implied total of 4.2 runs. Kluber owns a 24.3 strikeout percentage and 9.7 walk percentage this season.
