Chicago White Sox outfielder Mark Payton is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against right-hander Josh Winder and the Minnesota Twins.
Payton is out of the order for the second time in three games, although the previous absence for the lefty-hitter came against a southpaw. A.J. Pollock will move to left field while Adam Engel starts in center and hits ninth. Andrew Vaughn is absent for a second consecutive game.
Pollock has a $2,400 salary on Tuesday and numberFire’s models project him for 9.8 FanDuel points. Engel has a $2,100 salary and is projected for 7.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, Winder's strikeout rate this season (16.5%) is tied for fourth-lowest out of Tuesday's projected starters.
