Brock Holt

Brock Holt on Nationals' bench Thursday

Washington Nationals infielder/outfielder Brock Holt is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against left-hander Robbie Erlin and the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Holt is a hot 12-for-20 with 4 doubles, 2 RBI, and 5 runs over the last five games. He will take a seat against the Braves' lefty on Thursday while Michael Taylor makes a start in left field and hits eighth.

numberFire's models expect Taylor to score 11.9 FanDuel points on Thursday. His salary is $2,200. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Nationals have an implied total of 4.91 runs and the over/under (11.0 runs) is a daily high.
