Eloy Jimenez (groin) hitting cleanup Tuesday for White Sox
Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (groin) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against left-hander Kris Bubic and the Kansas City Royals.
What It Means:
Jimenez sat out the past four games with a groin issue. He is batting cleanup as the White Sox's designated hitter on Tuesday in what will be just his fourth appearance of the season. Jose Abreu is playing first base after covering the DH role last game and Gavin Sheets is idle.
numberFire’s models project Jimenez for 10.9 FanDuel points and he has a $3,300 salary on Tuesday. Abreu ($3,400) is projected for 12.6 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the White Sox have an implied total of 5.4 runs, which is third-highest in the majors on Tuesday. Bubic is registering a 5.60 xERA with a .357 xwOBA this season.
