Kevin Smith sitting for Athletics Thursday afternoon
Oakland Athletics infielder Kevin Smith is not in the starting lineup against right-hander Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Angels in Thursday afternoon's series finale.
What It Means:
Smith will sit for the day game after a night game. Tyler Wade will enter the lineup to play shortstop and hit ninth. Conner Capel will move up to the two-hole.
numberFire’s models project Wade ($2,000) for 7.8 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Athletics' implied total is second-lowest of the day at 3.24, even though the game total is tied for highest at 8.5.
