Ian Happ having seat Friday for Cubs
Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against left-hander Jose Quintana and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
What It Means:
The Cubs are giving Happ a breather after he started the previous four games. Patrick Wisdom is moving out to left field in place of Happ and hitting fifth. Jonathan Villar is covering third base while Nick Madrigal returns to the lineup to start on second base and bat leadoff.
numberFire’s models project Madrigal for 10.0 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,700 salary. Wisdom has a $3,300 salary and we project him to score 12.4 FanDuel points.
