Avisail Garcia grabbing seat for Milwaukee in Thursday matinee
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Avisail Garcia is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Adam Wainwright and the St. Louis Cardinals.
What It Means:
Garcia hit a solo homer on Wednesday to extend his hitting streak to six games. It was his fourth dinger in that stretch. Tyrone Taylor is taking over in right field and hitting sixth Thursday.
Taylor has a $2,000 salary on Thursday and numberFire's models project him for 9.6 FanDuel points. Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Brewers have an implied total of 4.0 runs. Wainwright is registering a 21.6 strikeout percentage and a 5.9 walk percentage this season, with a 3.82 xERA and a .299 xwOBA.
