New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman is in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against right-hander Rich Hill and the Tampa Bay Rays.
Tauchman will round out the bottom of the Yankees' order and play left field in his first start of the season. He doesn't have a hit this season but has still managed to steal a pair of bases and score a run. Brett Gardner will be available off the bench and Aaron Judge (side) remains out of the lineup.
numberFire’s models project Tauchman for 11.0 FanDuel points versus the Rays and he has a salary of $2,100 on Friday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Yankees have an implied total of 4.5 runs.
