Justin Turner taking seat for Dodgers versus St. Louis
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Justin Turner is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Adam Wainwright and the St. Louis Cardinals.
What It Means:
The Dodgers appear to be giving Turner a standard breather ahead of a matinee on Thursday. Max Muncy is replacing Turner on the hot corner and batting second Wednesday.
numberFire’s models project Muncy for 10.3 FanDuel points and he has a $3,900 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Dodgers have an implied total of 4.4 runs. Wainwright is registering a 22.6 strikeout percentage and a 6.1 walk percentage this season, with a 3.79 xERA and a .298 xwOBA.
