Minnesota Twins catcher Sandy Leon is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against left-hander Daniel Lynch and the Kansas City Royals.
Gary Sanchez will start at catcher while Kyle Garlick enters the lineup to be the designated hitter and leadoff batter.
Garlick is numberFire's third-best point-per-dollar value among batters on Thursday. He has a $2,300 salary and numberFire's models project him for 11.6 FanDuel points. Sanchez has a $2,500 salary and is projected for 11.2 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Twins’ implied total (4.71) is No. 4 out of 16 teams in the majors today.
