Astros' Mauricio Dubon back to bench Thursday
Houston Astros infielder Mauricio Dubon is not in the lineup for Thursday's series opener against right-hander Clarke Schmidt and the New York Yankees.
What It Means:
Dubon filled in for Jose Altuve in Wednesday's series finale against the Cleveland Guardians and went 0-for-4 with a walk drawn. Altuve will reclaim second base and leadoff duty from Dubon in Thursday's opener.
numberFire’s models project Altuve ($4,000) for 12.5 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros' implied total is 4.25 and the game total is 8.5. Schmidt has a 4.38 ERA and 4.28 xERA this season, with a 43.4% hard-hit rate, 21.9% strikeout rate, and 6.4% walk rate.
