Kyle Isbel kept out Friday for Kansas City
Kansas City Royals outfielder Kyle Isbel is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against left-hander Marco Gonzales and the Seattle Mariners.
What It Means:
The lefty-hitting Isbel will sit versus the Mariners' southpaw. MJ Melendez will move to left field in place of Isbel while Hunter Dozier fills the void in the lineup to play right field and hit seventh. Edward Olivares will be the Royals' designated hitter and Salvador Perez will catch for Brady Singer.
Dozier has a $2,200 salary on Friday and numberFire’s models project him for 10.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Royals’ implied total (3.96) is No. 12 in the majors today.
