Ronald Guzman on Rangers' bench Thursday

Texas Rangers first baseman Ronald Guzman is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against left-hander Framber Valdez and the Houston Astros.

What It Means:

Guzman will sit versus the Astros' lefty while Sherten Apostel enters the lineup on first base and bats sixth. He's a career .179 batter against southpaws.

numberFire's models expect Apostel to score 5.3 FanDuel points on Thursday with a salary of $2,000. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rangers currently have an implied total of 3.62 runs.
