Kansas City Royals outfielder Brent Rooker is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against right-hander Luis Patino and the Tampa Bay Rays.
Kyle Isbel will replace Rooker in left field and hit eighth.
Isbel has a $2,300 salary on Thursday and numberFire’s models project him for 7.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Royals’ implied total (3.25) is third-lowest on Thursday's Main slate out of 10 teams.
