Trey Mancini sitting Friday for Orioles

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Trey Mancini is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against right-hander Joe Ryan and the Minnesota Twins.

What It Means:

Mancini is out of the lineup for the second time in three games. Ryan Mountcastle is covering first base and batting cleanup while Anthony Santander takes over at designated hitter. Ryan McKenna is replacing Mancini in the lineup to play left field and hit seventh.

numberFire’s models project Mountcastle for 11.3 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $3,200 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Orioles’ implied total (3.90) is 23rd in the majors on Friday.
