San Diego Padres outfielder Jurickson Profar is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against left-hander Kyle Muller and the Atlanta Braves.
Profar went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, and a strikeout in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Washington Nationals. Wil Myers is replacing Profar in right field on Monday and hitting sixth.
numberFire’s models project Myers for 11.1 FanDuel points and he has a $2,700 salary on Monday. Per our MLB Heat Map, Muller has the highest strikeout rate among Monday's listed starters (31.3 percent), but the Padres have the sixth-lowest strikeout rate (21.6 percent) against left-handed pitchers this season.
