Tigers' Grayson Greiner grabbing seat Wednesday

Detroit Tigers catcher Grayson Greiner is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against left-hander Jon Lester and the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Greiner is moving to the bench while Dustin Garneau catches for Tarik Skubal and bats seventh.

numberFire’s models project Garneau for 8.0 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 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.
