Yankees' Chris Gittens sitting Tuesday

New York Yankees first baseman Chris Gittens is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's interleague game against right-hander Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies.

What It Means:

Gittens is grabbing a seat after starting the weekend series against the Boston Red Sox. D.J. LeMahieu is playing first base on Tuesday while Tyler Wade enters the lineup to play third base and bat eighth.

numberFire’s models project LeMahieu for 11.1 FanDuel points and he has a $3,400 salary on Tuesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Yankees have an implied total of 4.3 runs. Nola is registering a 29.5 strikeout percentage with a 5.4 walk percentage this season.
