Cubs' Willson Contreras starting at catcher
Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's road game against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Alex Avila got a spot start behind the dish on Sunday, but he's back to the bench while Contreras resumes catching duties and bats cleanup against Rays' righty Chris Archer.
The Cubs' offense is in a weak spot tonight, and they have a low 3.86 implied total. numberFire's models project Contreras for 10.3 FanDuel points while priced at $3,400.
