Cincinnati Reds outfielder Stuart Fairchild is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Fairchild will take a seat after three straight starts. Jose Barrero will replace Fairchild in center field and hit eighth. Jake Fraley (wrist) remains out Thursday for a second straight game.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Reds' implied total is 4.15 and the game total is 10.0. Kershaw has a 3.25 ERA and 3.59 xERA this season, with a 33.9% hard-hit rate, 30.0% strikeout rate, and 6.1% walk rate. Our models project Barrero ($2,400) for 6.6 FanDuel points.
