Eric Thames starting, leading off for Brewers on Friday
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Eric Thames is starting on Friday against the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
After being held out of Thursday's lineup, Thames will man first base and lead off the order versus right-hander German Marquez and the Rockies. He went 0-for-4 in his last start and is batting just .191 in August (55 plate appearances). Jesus Aguilar will be available off the bench.
With a strong implied total (5.33 runs) in a batter-friendly situation (12.0 over/under, 1.338 park factor), the Brewers' lineup is loaded with fantasy upside. Despite the recent struggles, numberFire's models project Thames to score 13.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,800 on Friday.
