Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu absent Friday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu is not in the lineup for Friday's series opener against right-hander Lance Lynn and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Abreu made his MLB debut on Tuesday and went 6-for-12 with a homer, 2 doubles, and 5 RBI in three consecutive starts. Adam Duvall is moving to center field on Friday and batting fifth while Masataka Yoshida shifts to left field and bats cleanup. Justin Turner is starting at designated hitter for Boston and Triston Casas is manning first base and hitting sixth.

numberFire’s models project Duvall ($3,100) for 9.4 FanDuel points on Friday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Red Sox's implied total is 5.06, fourth-highest on the board, and the game total is the highest of the day at 10.5. Lynn has a 5.60 ERA and 4.70 xERA (bottom 28th percentile of MLB) this season, with a 40.6% hard-hit rate, 26.8% strikeout rate, and 7.9% walk rate.
