Jake Bauers sitting for Seattle's Wednesday matinee

Seattle Mariners first baseman/outfielder Jake Bauers is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Tanner Houck and the Boston Red Sox.

What It Means:

Luis Torrens is returning to the lineup to bat seventh and replace Bauers as Seattle's designated hitter.

numberFire’s models project Torrens for 6.7 FanDuel points and he has a $2,300 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mariners have an implied total of 4.1 runs. Houck is registering a 28.0 strikeout percentage and a 6.7 walk percentage this season, with a 4.92 xERA and a .335 xwOBA.
