Akil Baddoo on Tigers' bench Wednesday afternoon
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against left-hander Jon Lester and the St. Louis Cardinals.
What It Means:
Baddoo returned from the injured list on Tuesday and went 0-for-5 with a strikeout. Daz Cameron is entering the lineup to bat fifth and join Derek Hill and Robbie Grossman in the outfield. Hill is in the leadoff spot against the Cardinals' lefty. Jeimer Candelario is cleaning up for Detroit.
numberFire’s models project Hill for 10.1 FanDuel points and he has a $2,400 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Tigers have an implied total of 4.5 runs. Lester is registering a 13.5 strikeout percentage (bottom 2% of the league) and an 8.7 walk percentage this season, with a 5.22 xERA and a .345 xwOBA.
