Oakland Athletics first baseman Dermis Garcia is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander George Kirby and the Seattle Mariners.
Garcia will grab a seat after he went 1-for-20 with a double, two RBI, and 10 strikeouts over the last five games. Stephen Vogt will replace Garcia on first base and bat fifth.
Vogt has a $2,000 salary on Thursday and numberFire’s models project him for 7.3 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Athletics have the lowest implied total (2.86) in the majors and they are the biggest underdogs (+198) of the day.
