Shogo Akiyama absent from Reds' lineup in first game of Friday doubleheader

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Shogo Akiyama is not in the starting lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader against left-hander Steven Brault and the Pittsburgh Pirates.

What It Means:

Akiyama is slashing .196/.291/.247 through his first 111 plate appearances in the majors. Jesse Winker will shift to left field and fall to fifth in the order while Matt Davidson bats third as the Reds' designated hitter.

numberFire's models expect Davidson to score 10.0 FanDuel points on Friday. He costs $2,500.
