Mets' Mark Vientos sitting Wednesday

New York Mets designated hitter Mark Vientos is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Adrian Houser and the Milwaukee Brewers.

What It Means:

Dan Vogelbach will replace Vientos as the Mets' designated hitter and bat fifth.

Vogelbach has a $2,700 salary on Wednesday and numberFire’s models project him for 12.9 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets’ implied total (4.47) is No. 10 in the majors today. Among Wednesday's projected starters, Houser has the second-lowest strikeout rate this season (15.7%).
