Nationals' Josh Palacios on bench Tuesday

Washington Nationals outfielder Josh Palacios is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against left-hander Jose Quintana and the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Joey Meneses will move to right field in place of Palacios and hit second. Luke Voit will play first base and bat third while Nelson Cruz (knee) returns to be the Nationals' designated hitter and cleanup man.

Meneses has a $3,200 salary on Tuesday and numberFire’s models project him for 11.0 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Nationals’ implied total (3.23) is No. 23 in the majors today.
