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.
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.
