Mitch Haniger heading to Giants bench Wednesday
San Francisco Giants outfielder Mitch Haniger is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
What It Means:
The Giants appear to be giving Haniger a routine breather for the day game after a night game. Luis Matos will cover left field and hit sixth.
numberFire’s models project Matos ($2,100) for 10.1 FanDuel points on Wednesday and he's the top point-per-dollar value among batters on the board. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Giants' implied total is 3.78 and the game total is 7.5. Kelly has a 3.45 ERA and middling 4.02 xERA this season, with below-average marks in hard-hit rate (40.3%) and walk rate (9.4%).
