Michael Cuddyer (wrist) back in Mets' lineup Monday
New York Mets outfielder Michael Cuddyer (wrist) is back in the Mets' starting lineup Monday night against the Miami Marlins.
Cuddyer hasn't made a start since September 2nd, though he has pinch hit twice since then. Cuddyer will bat sixth play right field.
Cuddyer and the Mets are matched with Marlins' lefty Justin Nicolino Monday. Nicolino holds a 5.15 xFIP through eight starts this season, and that leaps to 5.57 against righties. Because of Cuddyer's struggles this season (a .264/.319/.402 slash) and his lower spot in hte batting order, our projections have him producing as a lower-tier outfielder on FanDuel.
