Ben Gamel in left field Wednesday afternoon for Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Ben Gamel is in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against right-hander Dylan Cease and the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
Gamel will replace Phillip Evans in left field and hit sixth after being held out of Tuesday's lineup. Gamel appears to have leap-frogged Evans on the Pirates' depth chart.
numberFire’s models project Gamel for 8.4 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates have an implied total of 3.8 runs. Cease is registering a 29.3 strikeout percentage with a less imposing 10.2 walk percentage this season.
