Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Carlos Santana is not in the lineup for Thursday's series finale against right-hander Miles Mikolas and the St. Louis Cardinals.
Rowdy Tellez will replace Santana on first base and bat fifth. Santana went 0-for-4 on Tuesday night.
numberFire’s models project Tellez ($2,600) for 8.6 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Brewers' implied total is 4.27 and the game total is 8.5. Mikolas barely hands out any walks (4.6%), but his 15.1% strikeout rate is in the bottom 5th percentile of the league and his 16.0% whiff ranks even lower than that.
