Toronto Blue Jays first baseman/outfielder Steve Pearce is batting from the cleanup spot Friday against the Chicago Cubs.
Facing an NL opponent on the road today, the Blue Jays lose their usual four-hitter in designated hitter Kendrys Morales. Therefore, Pearce will slide up a spot to hit fourth against the Cubs' Jake Arrieta.
With a career .379 wOBA and .247 ISO from the cleanup spot, our models project Pearce for 8.8 FanDuel points at $3,500 on the early slate.
