James McCann in at catcher for Tigers versus Yankees

Detroit Tigers catcher James McCann is starting on Thursday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

McCann will catch right-hander Michael Fulmer and bat sixth versus Yankees left-hander Jaime Garcia. John Hicks will move to first base while Miguel Cabrera starts at designated hitter and Victor Martinez grabs a seat on the Tigers' bench.

The Tigers' lineup could be worth looking into on Thursday, as they own a solid implied total (4.78 runs) in a matchup that offers some fantasy upside (9.5 over/under, 0.987 park factor). numberFire's models project McCann to score 8.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,500.
