Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against left-hander Kwang Hyun Kim and the St. Louis Cardinals.
Zimmer is grabbing a seat versus the Cardinals' lefty after he started the Indians' last three games. Oscar Mercado is replacing Zimmer in center field and hitting sixth as the Indians wrap up this two-game interleague set.
numberFire’s models project Mercado for 6.8 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Indians have an implied total of 4.2 runs. Kim is registering a 19.1 strikeout percentage with an 8.0 walk percentage this season.
