Jeremy Pena (neck) returning Wednesday for Houston
Houston Astros infielder Jeremy Pena (neck) is back in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Chase Anderson and the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
Pena missed the previous five games due to neck stiffness. He will replace Grae Kessinger at shortstop and hit eighth on Wednesday afternoon.
numberFire’s models project Pena ($6,500 on single-game slate) for 10.2 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros' implied total is 5.20 and the game total is 9.0. Anderson has a 6.50 ERA and 5.59 xERA (bottom 10th percentile of MLB) this season, with a 32.2% hard-hit rate (top 87th), 16.7% strikeout rate (bottom 13th), and 7.8% walk rate.
