DJ LeMahieu idle for Yankees' first game Thursday
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader against right-hander Tanner Houck and the Boston Red Sox.
What It Means:
Jake Bauers will cover first base for the Yankees in the matinee after Wednesday's game was rained out. LeMahieu will likely return to the lineup for Game 2 on Thursday.
numberFire’s models project Bauers ($2,500) for 11.0 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Yankees' implied total is 4.41 and the game total is 9.0. Houck has a 5.28 ERA and 4.26 xERA this season, so he has likely suffered from some unfortunate luck. However, he doesn't record many strikeouts (21.2%) and has a hard-hit rate in the bottom 16th percentile of the league.
