Michael Harris II heads to Braves bench Tuesday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II is not in the lineup versus rookie right-hander Bobby Miller and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday.
What It Means:
The Braves appear to be giving Harris a breather after he went hitless in a sixth straight game on Monday. Sam Hilliard will cover center field for Harris and bat ninth.
Hilliard is averaging 7.4 FanDuel points per game this season. Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Braves' implied total is 4.86 and the game total is 8.5. Miller is considered to be a top pitching prospect, but he will be making his MLB debut Tuesday after recording a 5.31 xFIP in Triple-A this year.
