New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is not in the lineup versus right-hander Kyle Gibson and the Baltimore Orioles in Thursday's series finale.
The Yankees appear to be giving LeMahieu a routine maintenance day. Oswaldo Cabrera will replace LeMahieu on third base Thursday and bat seventh. Harrison Bader will move up a spot and hit cleanup.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Yankees' implied total is 4.76 and the game total is 9.0. Gibson has an underwhelming 4.80 SIERA and 16.7% strikeout rate this season, but that comes with a stronger 33.9% flyball rate and 28.0% hard-hit rate allowed. Our models project Cabrera ($2,500) for 8.9 FanDuel points on Thursday.
