Travis Shaw starting for Blue Jays versus Rays in Game 2
Toronto Blue Jays infielder Travis Shaw will start in Game 2 of the Wild Card Round on Wednesday against right-hander Tyler Glasnow and the Tampa Bay Rays.
What It Means:
Shaw will man first base and bat seventh. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will serve as the Blue Jays' designated hitter while Alejandro Kirk takes a seat. Lourdes Gurriel will bat third after going 2-for-4 as Toronto's No. 5 batter in Tuesday's Game 1 loss. The Blue Jays' full lineup as they look to avoid elimination: Cavan Biggio 3B, Bo Bichette SS, Gurriel LF, Guerrero Jr. DH, Randal Grichuk CF, Teoscar Hernandez RF, Shaw 1B, Joe Panik 2B, Danny Jansen C. Hyun-Jin Ryu will be on the mound.
numberFire's models expect Shaw to score 8.9 FanDuel points on Wednesday with a salary of $2,400. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Blue Jays currently have the second-lowest implied total (3.3 runs) on Wednesday's slate.
