Tommy Pham (knee) leading off for Padres against Atlanta

San Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham (knee) is in the leadoff spot for Monday's series opener against left-hander Kyle Muller and the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Pham was lifted early on Sunday after running into the outfield wall, but he's apparently good to go. He is in his usual spot atop the order against a southpaw and Trent Grisham is hitting seventh.

numberFire’s models project Pham for 11.3 FanDuel points and he has a $3,000 salary on Monday. Grisham ($3,500) is projected for 11.0 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, Muller has the highest strikeout rate among Monday's listed starters (31.3 percent), but the Padres have the sixth-lowest strikeout rate (21.6 percent) against left-handed pitchers this season.
