Lewis Brinson (thumb) sidelined Friday for Marlins
Miami Marlins outfielder Lewis Brinson (thumb) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against left-hander Wade Miley and the Cincinnati Reds.
What It Means:
Brinson suffered a sprained left thumb during Thursday's game and he should be considered day-to-day for now. Bryan De La Cruz is covering center field while Jorge Alfaro joins the outfield in left. Alex Jackson is catching for Zach Thompson and hitting eighth. Alfaro is in the Marlins' cleanup spot.
numberFire’s models project Alfaro for 8.7 FanDuel points and he has a $2,400 salary on Friday’s slate. De La Cruz is projected for 8.8 FanDuel points with a $2,700 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Marlins have an implied total of 3.7 runs. Miley is registering an 18.7 strikeout percentage and a 7.9 walk percentage this season, with a 3.98 xERA and a .305 xwOBA.
