Will Brennan on Guardians' bench in ALDS Game 2
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Will Brennan is not in the starting lineup in Game 2 of the ALDS on Friday afternoon against left-hander Nestor Cortes and the New York Yankees.
The lefty-hitting Brennan will head to the bench as the Yankees send a southpaw to the hill. Owen Miller will replace Brennan as the Guardians' designated hitter and bat sixth.
Miller has a $2,300 salary on Friday and numberFire’s models project him for 7.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Guardians’ implied total (2.78) is the lowest on the board today. Cortes registered a 3.48 SIERA and 26.5% strikeout rate during the regular season, but he wasn't as prolific with the punch-out against right-handed hitters (24.7%).
