Luis Guillorme grabbing seat Monday for Mets

New York Mets infielder Luis Guillorme is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against right-hander Justin Dunn and the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

The lefty-hitting Guillorme started the last seven games, including one against a southpaw, but the Mets will give him Monday off. Eduardo Escobar will replace Guillorme on third base and in the eight-hole.

Escobar has a $2,500 salary on Monday and numberFire’s models project him for 9.9 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets’ implied total (5.69) is the highest in the majors on Monday.
