New York Mets outfielder Billy Hamilton is starting on Wednesday versus right-hander Max Scherzer and the Washington Nationals.
Hamilton will replace Ryan Cordell in center field and hit ninth in his first appearance of the season. He was acquired from the San Francisco Giants on Sunday morning in exchange for right-hander Jordan Humphreys and then recalled from the Mets alternate training site on Tuesday. Cordell was designated for assignment.
Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Mets are +200 underdogs on Wednesday.
