Mets' Michael Conforto sitting versus Giants' lefty
New York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against left-hander Alex Wood and the San Francisco Giants.
What It Means:
The Mets appear to be giving Conforto a routine day off against a left-handed pitcher. Kevin Pillar is replacing Conforto in right field and hitting seventh. Pete Alonso is in the cleanup spot in place of Conforto.
numberFire’s models project Pillar for 7.5 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Thursday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets have an implied total of 4.2 runs. Wood is registering a 25.4 strikeout percentage and a 7.2 walk percentage this season, with a 3.92 xERA and a .303 xwOBA.
