Nationals' Alcides Escobar absent from Tuesday lineup

Washington Nationals infielder Alcides Escobar is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against right-hander Walker Buehler and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Dee Strange-Gordon is replacing Escobar at shortstop and hitting ninth.

numberFire’s models project Strange-Gordon for 5.6 FanDuel points on Tuesday, which is currently the lowest projection among all hitters, and he has a $2,000 salary.
