Dan Vogelbach in Mets' dugout Thursday
New York Mets designated hitter Dan Vogelbach is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against left-hander Max Fried and the Atlanta Braves.
What It Means:
The lefty-hitting Vogelbach will sit against the southpaw after starting the past five games. Pete Alonso will shift into the DH role while Darin Ruf starts on first base and bats fifth.
Ruf has a $2,600 salary on Thursday and numberFire’s models project him for 7.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets’ implied total (3.42) is fourth-lowest on Thursday's Main slate out of 10 teams. The over/under for the game (6.5) is the lowest of the five contests.
