What It Means:

Tauchman started against a southpaw on Sunday and went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts. The lefty batter is taking a seat Monday while Cody Bellinger moves to center field and Patrick Wisdom takes over at designated hitter. Jeimer Candelario is responsible for first base and Nick Madrigal is manning the hot corner. Madrigal is replacing Tauchman as the last batter in the Cubs' lineup.

numberFire’s models project Madrigal ($2,300) for 7.4 and Bellinger ($3,800) for 13.2 FanDuel points on Monday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cubs' implied total is 4.65 and the game total is 9.0. Miley has a 3.18 ERA in front of a 4.48 xERA this season, with a 31.8% hard-hit rate (top 89th percentile of MLB), 16.5% strikeout rate (bottom 10th), and 7.5% walk rate.
