Howie Kendrick starting at first base for Nationals on Sunday

Washington Nationals outfielder Howie Kendrick is starting on Sunday against the New York Mets.

What It Means:

Ryan Zimmerman is dealing with some soreness, so Kendrick will draw the start at first base and bat fifth versus Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom. Adam Lind will be available off the Nationals' bench while Alejandro De Aza, Victor Robles, and Michael Taylor handle things in the outfield on Sunday.

With a low implied total (3.85 runs) in a pitcher-friendly matchup (7.0 over/under, 0.929 park factor), the Nationals' lineup may be limited on fantasy upside. numberFire's models project Kendrick to score 10.6 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,900 on Sunday.
