Chicago Cubs outfielder Nelson Velazquez (illness) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale versus left-hander David Peterson and the New York Mets.
Velazquez is feeling better after missing the last five contests with an illness. He will replace Ian Happ in left field and hit eighth.
Velazquez has a $2,100 salary on Wednesday and numberFire's models project him for 7.5 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cubs’ implied total (3.23) is the second-lowest in the majors today.
