FanDuel Fantasy Points Per Game More DFS

Stuart Fairchild sitting Thursday afternoon for Reds

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Stuart Fairchild is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Fairchild will take a seat after three straight starts. Jose Barrero will replace Fairchild in center field and hit eighth. Jake Fraley (wrist) remains out Thursday for a second straight game.

Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Reds' implied total is 4.15 and the game total is 10.0. Kershaw has a 3.25 ERA and 3.59 xERA this season, with a 33.9% hard-hit rate, 30.0% strikeout rate, and 6.1% walk rate. Our models project Barrero ($2,400) for 6.6 FanDuel points.
