New York Mets outfielder Darin Ruf is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against right-hander JT Brubaker and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Jeff McNeil will move to right field in place of Ruf and hit third while Luis Guillorme starts on second base and bats sixth.
McNeil has a $3,100 salary on Thursday and numberFire's models project him for 9.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets’ implied total (4.55) is No. 5 out of 16 teams in the majors today.
