FanDuel Fantasy Points Per Game More DFS

Mike Trout (hand) sitting out Monday for Angels

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hand) is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against right-hander Luis Garcia and the Houston Astros.

What It Means:

Trout is expected to sit out at least one game after he was hit in the hand by a pitch on Sunday against the Texas Rangers. He was forced to leave early, but X-rays came back negative, so hopefully it's only a one-game absence for Trout. Brandon Marsh is replacing Trout in center field and hitting fifth, while Taylor Ward is moving up a spot in the order to hit second.

numberFire’s models project Marsh for 7.6 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has a $2,600 salary.
