Reds' Spencer Steer (eye) scratched Wednesday
Cincinnati Reds infielder Spencer Steer was scratched from Wednesday's lineup against the Boston Red Sox due to an eye infection.
What It Means:
Steer was initially lined up to play shortstop, but he will remain out of the lineup for a second consecutive game. The Reds added Stuart Fairchild to the lineup in place of Steer as the No. 8 batter.
Fairchild is numberFire's fourth-best point-per-dollar value among hitters on Wednesday. He has a $2,100 salary and our models project him for 11.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Reds have the fifth-best implied total (4.80) in the majors today and the over/under for the game (10.5) is a run higher than any other total.
