Josh VanMeter riding Pirates' pine Friday
Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Josh VanMeter is not in the starting lineup on Friday against left-hander Bailey Falter and the Philadelphia Phillies.
What It Means:
Michael Chavis will replace VanMeter on first base and bat cleanup. The lefty-hitting VanMeter started the last five games, but they all came against right-handers.
Chavis has a $2,200 salary on Friday and numberFire’s models project him for 9.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates’ implied total (3.90) is No. 16 in the majors on Friday.
