Guillermo Heredia taking seat Tuesday for Braves

Atlanta Braves outfielder Guillermo Heredia is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Marcus Stroman and the Chicago Cubs.

What It Means:

Travis Demeritte is replacing Heredia in right field and hitting eighth. The Braves placed Eddie Rosario on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to blurred vision and swelling in his right retina, so Arcia should see an uptick in playing time in the short-term.

numberFire’s models project Demeritte for 10.9 FanDuel points on Tuesday, and he has a $3,200 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Braves have the eighth-highest implied total (4.47) in the majors on Tuesday.
