Patrick Wisdom riding pine Friday for Cubs
Chicago Cubs infielder Patrick Wisdom is not in the lineup on Friday afternoon against right-hander Jack Flaherty and the St. Louis Cardinals.
Wisdom will sit for the second time in three games after he went 0-for-2 with a strikeout in Thursday's series opener. He was hit by a pitch, but also committed a pair of errors. Miles Mastrobuoni will replace Wisdom on the hot corner Friday and hit eighth.
Mastro has a $4,000 salary on the single-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 7.5 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cubs' implied total is 4.35 and the game total is 8.5. Flaherty has a 4.29 ERA and 4.61 xERA this season, with a 35.0% hard-hit rate, 22.2% strikeout rate, and 11.8% walk rate (bottom 12th percentile of MLB).
