Cleveland Guardians catcher Bo Naylor is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Zack Greinke and the Kansas City Royals.
Naylor will sit after going 2-for-8 with a homer, a double, 2 RBI, 3 walks, a steal, and 2 runs scored in the first two games of the series. Cam Gallagher will catch for Lucas Giolito and bat ninth on Wednesday afternoon.
numberFire’s models project Gallagher ($2,100) for 5.7 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Guardians' implied total is 4.60 and the game total is 8.5. Greinke's 3.7% walk rate is in the top 98th percentile of the league this season, but his 15.7% strikeout rate is in the bottom 6th. The veteran also has an ugly 5.18 xERA and .290 xBA in his 20th season.
