Trent Grisham taking seat Friday for Padres
San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against left-hander Madison Bumgarner and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
What It Means:
The lefty-hitting Grisham was the No. 9 batter against a southpaw on Thursday and he went 1-for-3 with a solo bomb, a walk, and a stolen base, but the Padres are holding him out Friday versus a left-hander. Esteury Ruiz will cover center field and the nine-hole while Jurickson Profar starts in left field and bats leadoff in his return from the concussion list.
numberFire’s models project Ruiz for 7.5 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,200 salary. Profar is projected for 12.4 FanDuel points with a $3,300 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Padres’ implied total (4.24) is No. 11 in the majors on Friday.
