Lourdes Gurriel in left field for Diamondbacks Friday afternoon

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel will start in left field and hit sixth on Friday afternoon against right-hander Jameson Taillon and the Chicago Cubs.

What It Means:

Gurriel will return to action after sitting out Thursday's series opener. Tommy Pham will shift to designated hitter while Pavin Smith moves back to the bench.

Gurriel has a $7,000 salary on Friday's single-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 8.8 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have a deflated implied total (3.84) and the game total is a pitcher-friendly 7.5. Taillon is struggling this season and enters Friday with a 5.36 xERA and 20.7% strikeout rate.
