Robinson Cano making Braves debut Monday

Atlanta Braves infielder Robinson Cano is in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against right-hander Max Scherzer and the New York Mets.

What It Means:

The Braves acquired Cano from the San Diego Padres on Sunday and they are starting him on second base and batting him ninth a day later. Cano is expected to be the lefty-hitter in a platoon at second base with Orlando Arcia.

numberFire’s models project Cano for 7.0 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has a $2,500 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Braves’ implied total (3.65) is third-lowest out of the 14 available teams on the main slate.
