Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Kevin Newman is not in the starting lineup against right-hander Chris Bassitt and the New York Mets for Game 1 of Wednesday's doubleheader.
Tucupita Marcano will replace Newman on second base and bat seventh.
Marcano has a $5,000 salary on Wednesday's early single-game slate and numberFire’s models project him for 7.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates’ implied total is 3.39 and they are +215 underdogs.
