Astros' Chas McCormick moving to bench Tuesday
Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against rookie left-hander Packy Naughton and the Los Angeles Angels.
What It Means:
McCormick is moving to the bench after making three straight starts for Houston. Jake Meyers is replacing McCormick in center field and hitting eighth.
numberFire’s models project Meyers for 12.7 FanDuel points and he has a $2,200 salary on Tuesday’s slate, making him our second-best point-per-dollar value among active hitters. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros have an implied total of 5.5 runs. Through Naughton's first 16 2/3 innings in the majors, he is registering a 14.3 strikeout percentage and an 10.4 walk percentage, with a 4.47 xERA and a .321 xwOBA.
