Yohel Pozo riding pine Wednesday for Rangers
Texas Rangers designated hitter Yohel Pozo is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Zach Plesac and the Cleveland Indians.
What It Means:
Pozo is taking a seat for the second time in the last three games after going 0-for-5 in Tuesday's series opener. Adolis Garcia is shifting to DH and D.J. Peters is moving to right field on Wednesday. Jason Martin is entering the lineup to play left field and hit seventh.
numberFire’s models project Garcia for 12.8 FanDuel points and he has a $3,600 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rangers have an implied total of 3.9 runs. Plesac is registering a 16.3 strikeout percentage (bottom 7% of the league) and a 5.0 walk percentage (top 9%) this season, with a 4.53 xERA and a .324 xwOBA.
