New York Yankees infielder Oswald Peraza is not in the starting lineup versus right-hander Sonny Gray and the Minnesota Twins in Monday's series opener.
The Yankees appear to be giving Peraza a routine breather. DJ LeMahieu will be on third base and Anthony Rizzo will be on first. Aaron Judge will serve as the designated hitter while Franchy Cordero will man right field and bat sixth.
numberFire’s models project Cordero ($2,800) for 7.8 FanDuel points on Monday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Yankees' implied total is second-lowest on the slate at 3.43 and the game total is a pitcher-friendly 7.5. Gray has the second-best strikeout rate (28.3%) out of the projected starters on the Main slate.
