Michael Chavis moving to Pirates' bench for Tuesday matinee
Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Michael Chavis is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday afternoon against right-hander Keegan Thompson and the Chicago Cubs.
What It Means:
Chavis started on first base Monday and went 1-for-4. Josh VanMeter will move to first base and hit eighth Tuesday while Kevin Newman takes over on the keystone and in the leadoff spot.
Newman has a $7,000 salary on Tuesday's one-game afternoon slate and numberFire’s models project him for 9.8 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates’ implied total (3.70) is seventh-lowest in the majors on Tuesday.
