Oakland Athletics outfielder Billy McKinney is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against right-hander Glenn Otto and the Minnesota Twins.
Mickey McDonald, who was just called up from the minors, is replacing McKinney in right field and hitting eighth. The Athletics are presumably giving McKinney a routine breather after four consecutive starts.
numberFire’s models project McDonald for 7.6 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,000 salary.
