Juan Yepez in left field for Cardinals Thursday afternoon

St. Louis Cardinals first baseman/outfielder Juan Yepez will start in left field and hit fifth in Thursday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Wade Miley and the Milwaukee Brewers.

What It Means:

Yepez will make his first start since being recalled from the minors last weekend. Richie Palacios is absent after starting in left field on Wednesday.

numberFire’s models project Yepez ($2,200) for 6.9 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cardinals' implied total is 4.23 and the game total is 8.5.
