St. Louis Cardinals infielder Paul DeJong is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against left-hander Rich Hill and the New York Mets.
DeJong started the previous four games at shortstop while Edmundo Sosa dealt with a wrist injury. Sosa is starting over DeJong and hitting seventh in Monday's opener.
numberFire’s models project Sosa for 7.0 FanDuel points and he has a $2,300 salary on Monday’s slate. Hill is registering a 22.2 strikeout percentage and a 7.9 walk percentage this season, with a 4.50 xERA and a .322 xwOBA.
