Brett Baty Out Of Lineup Against Lefty
2 years agoNew York Mets third baseman Brett Baty is not in Thursday's starting lineup against the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez. Baty has performed nicely in his first 14 games with the Mets so far in 2023, hitting .311 (14-for-45) with two doubles, two home runs, four RBI and five runs scored, but he'll take a seat in this one for a day of rest against a southpaw. Fantasy managers need to put him on their benches. With Baty out, Eduardo Escobar will draw the start at the hot corner and hit eighth against Rodriguez. Escobar is hitting just .172 (10-for-58) in the early going with two doubles, a triple, three home runs and nine RBI in 18 games played, and he won't have much DFS appeal in the eight-hole.
