Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Michael Chavis is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Chavis will grab a seat after starting the last four games. Josh VanMeter will replace Chavis on first base and bat ninth.
JVM has a $2,200 salary on Thursday and numberFire’s models project him for 6.6 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates’ implied total (3.33) is third-lowest out of 16 active teams today.
