Washington Nationals outfielder Yadiel Hernandez is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against left-hander Justin Steele and the Chicago Cubs.
The lefty-hitting Hernandez is out of the lineup for the second time in three games as the Nationals square off with another southpaw. Lane Thomas will move to left field and hit fifth while Victor Robles starts in center field and bats leadoff. Nelson Cruz will be Washington's cleanup man and Cesar Hernandez will hit sixth.
Robles has a $2,200 salary on Tuesday and numberFire’s models project him for 9.8 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Nationals' implied total (4.03) is tied for No. 14 in the majors on Tuesday.
