Randal Grichuk resting Tuesday for Toronto
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Randal Grichuk is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Zach Plesac and the Cleveland Indians.
What It Means:
Grichuk is grabbing a seat after going 0-for-4 with 3 strikeouts on Monday. Teoscar Hernandez is heading over to right field in place of Grichuk while Lourdes Gurriel returns to the lineup to bat seventh and start in left.
numberFire’s models project Hernandez for 12.6 FanDuel points and he has a $3,400 salary on Tuesday. Gurriel ($2,500) is projected for 11.8 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Blue Jays have an implied total of 4.9 runs. Plesac's strikeout percentage this season (15.9) ranks in the bottom sixth percent of the league, but his walk percentage (4.9) is in the top 92nd percentile.
