George Springer leading off for Blue Jays Monday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer is starting in right field and hitting leadoff in Monday's series opener against right-hander Josiah Gray and the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Springer is moving into the leadoff role while Bo Bichette undergoes an MRI on his quad. Davis Schneider is filling the void as the Blue Jays' cleanup batter in Monday's opener.

numberFire’s models project Springer ($3,000) for 10.7 and Schneider ($2,800) for 11.7 FanDuel points on Monday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Blue Jays' implied total is 4.84 and the game total is 8.0. Gray is hiding a disappointing 4.96 xERA behind his 3.85 ERA this season while on pace for career-worsts in strikeout rate (19.9%) and walk rate (11.3%).
