Dan Vogelbach idle for Mets versus Reds

New York Mets designated hitter Dan Vogelbach is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against left-hander Mike Minor and the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

The Mets are holding the lefty-hitting Vogelbach out against the Reds' southpaw. Pete Alonso will take over as the DH while Darin Ruf starts on first base and bats fifth.

Ruf has a $2,600 salary on Tuesday and numberFire’s models project him for 11.0 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets have the second-highest implied total (5.32) out of 28 teams on the Main slate.
