Houston Astros infielder Mauricio Dubon will start on second base and bat leadoff Wednesday afternoon against right-hander Tanner Bibee and the Cleveland Guardians.
Dubon will fill in on the keystone and the top of the order while the Astros give Jose Altuve a breather. It's only his second time in the lineup since Altuve returned from the injured list.
numberFire’s models project Dubon ($2,600) for 8.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros' implied total is 3.84 and the game total is 8.5. Bibee has been solid in his first year in the bigs, registering a 3.11 ERA and 3.46 xERA, with a 37.2% hard-hit rate, 24.4% strikeout rate, and 8.3% walk rate.
