Brian Anderson absent for Brewers Wednesday afternoon

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Brian Anderson is not in the lineup on Wednesday afternoon against right-hander Kenta Maeda and the Minnesota Twins.

What It Means:

Anderson started on Tuesday and went 1-for-4 with 2 RBI and 2 whiffs. Andruw Monasterio will return to third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's matinee.

numberFire’s models project Monasterio ($2,500) for 9.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Brewers' implied total is 3.99 and the game total is a deflated 7.5. Maeda has a 4.13 ERA and 3.73 xERA this season, with a 43.2% hard-hit rate, 28.9% strikeout rate, and 6.3% walk rate. He's giving up a fair amount of hard hits, but Maeda is also punching out plenty of hitters and limiting his walks.
