Alex Verdugo on Boston's bench Wednesday afternoon

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Marco Gonzales and the Seattle Mariners.

What It Means:

Verdugo appears to be getting a breather after going 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win over Seattle. Kyle Schwarber is replacing Verdugo in left field and hitting sixth.

numberFire’s models project Schwarber for 13.5 FanDuel points and he has a $3,600 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Red Sox have an implied total of 4.4 runs. Gonzales is registering an 18.0 strikeout percentage and a 7.0 walk percentage this season, with a 4.92 xERA and a .335 xwOBA.
