Jay Bruce

Jay Bruce is hitting fifth Tuesday in New York

New York Mets outfielder Jay Bruce is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Bruce sat out Monday against righty Jeremy Hellickson, but he'll return to the lineup on Tuesday. The Nats are starting lefty Gio Gonzalez, but Bruce is still in right field and hitting fifth. Brandon Nimmo will head to the bench with Bruce back in the lineup.

Our models project Bruce for 10.3 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,100.
