Washington Nationals third baseman Anthony Rendon is batting sixth versus Jacob deGrom and the New York Mets on Sunday.
Rendon spent Saturday in the two-hole versus Seth Lugo but will slide back down to his usual sixth spot in the order on Sunday.
Rendon is hitless versus deGrom in 13 career at-bats. Combine that with the Nationals owning the second-lowest implied run total (3.95) and Citi Field having the lowest park factor of the day (.929), Rendon is a risky play.
