Cedric Mullins on Baltimore bench Thursday
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is not in the lineup versus right-hander Clarke Schmidt and the New York Yankees in Thursday's series finale.
What It Means:
The Orioles appear to be giving Mullins the day off for general rest and maintenance. Ryan McKenna will replace Mullins in center field and hit eighth. Adam Frazier will cover the leadoff spot for Mullins.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Orioles' implied total is 4.24 and the game total is 9.0. Schmidt has a 4.98 xERA and 35.6% hard-hit rate allowed this season while allowing 1.60 home runs per nine innings. Our models project McKenna ($2,100) for 7.0 FanDuel points on Thursday. Frazier ($2,700) is projected for 10.1 FanDuel points.
