What It Means:

Boyd has recorded a 5.69 ERA, 1.77 WHIP, and 14.4 strikeout percentage in 11 previous starts in the big leagues this season. He's filling in for Daniel Norris (groin), who is making a rehab start for Triple-A Toledo Tuesday. It's unknown whether Norris will require another rehab outing before returning to the Tigers' rotation.

The 26-year-old left-hander doesn't make for the best fantasy streamer, as the Royals have an implied total of 5.32 runs in a matchup with a high over/under (10.5) and run-friendly park factor (1.072). numberFire's models project Boyd to score only 19.31 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,500 on Tuesday evening.
