Minnesota Twins outfielder Nick Gordon is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against left-hander Travis Skubal and the Detroit Tigers.
Gordon is sitting while Gilberto Celestino starts in center field and hits eighth. Trevor Larnach and Max Kepler are in the other outfield spots.
numberFire’s models project Celestino for 7.8 FanDuel points and he has a $2,200 salary on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Twins have the fourth-highest implied total (4.9 runs) in the majors on Thursday.
