Travis d'Arnaud starting at catcher, batting seventh Thursday for Mets
New York Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud is starting on Thursday versus the New York Yankees.
d'Arnaud will move back behind the plate after making a spot start at third base for the Mets on Wednesday. He will switch spots with Dominic Smith in the order, going from fifth to seventh versus Yankees right-hander Luis Severino. Matt Reynolds will make the start at the hot corner with Wilmer Flores (rib cage) still out.
The Mets have the lowest implied total (2.99 runs) on Thursday's board in what sets up to be a pitcher-friendly matchup (7.0 over/under, 0.929 park factor), so they don't offer much upside in regards to fantasy production. numberFire's models project d'Arnaud to score 6.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,000.
