Dominic Smith sitting for Mets Wednesday
New York Mets first baseman/left fielder Dominic Smith is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander German Marquez and the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
Smith went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run in Tuesday's win over the Rockies. Brandon Drury will start in left field on Wednesday and bat sixth. Billy McKinney, who was just acquired on Tuesday, will start in right field and bat cleanup for the Mets.
numberFire’s models project McKinney for 8.8 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets have the fourth-lowest implied total (3.4) in the majors on Wednesday. Among Wednesday's listed starters, Marquez owns the best ground ball-to-fly ball ratio and opposing lineups are scoring the second-fewest FanDuel points per game against the right-hander.
