Dodgers' Chris Taylor taking seat Thursday afternoon

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Chris Taylor is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Mitch Keller and the Pittsburgh Pirates.

What It Means:

Taylor will grab a seat following nine straight starts. Zach McKinstry will take Taylor's spot on second base and bat sixth.

numberFire’s models project McKinstry for 11.1 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Thursday's slate, making him our second-best point-per-dollar value among hitters. Per our MLB Heat Map, Keller has the highest walk rate (12.4 percent) out of Thursday's listed starters and the Dodgers have the third-highest implied total (5.0 runs).
