Wilmer Flores starting Saturday for Mets

New York Mets infielder Wilmer Flores is starting at first base on Saturday against the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

After getting Friday off, Flores will return to replace Dominic Smith at first base as the Mets face lefty Gio Gonzalez in Washington today. Flores is hitting cleanup for the matchup.

With a .326 wOBA and .240 ISO against southpaws, Flores is projected for just 7.6 FanDuel points against Washington's standout lefty. He costs $2,700 on the slate.
