New York Mets infielder Jeff McNeil is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Elieser Hernandez and the Miami Marlins.
McNeil started the second leg of Tuesday's doubleheader, but he's out of the lineup for the second time in three games Wednesday. Dominic Smith is replacing McNeil in left field and hitting seventh.
Smith has a $2,000 salary on Wednesday and numberFire's models project him for 7.9 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets have an implied total of 4.2 runs. Hernandez is registering a 22.9 strikeout percentage and a 6.8 walk percentage this season.
