Wilmer Difo starting for Nationals against Braves

Washington Nationals shortstop/second baseman Wilmer Difo is starting on Wednesday against the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Difo will start at second base and bat second versus Braves left-hander Luiz Gohara. Daniel Murphy is dealing with a stiff neck, but manager Dusty Baker says it was a routine day off anyway for the left-handed hitter.

As heavy favorites with an appealing implied total (4.96 runs) and a strong park factor (1.019), the Nationals' lineup could carry some fantasy upside worth looking into on Wednesday. numberFire's models project Difo to score 11.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,900.
