Pirates' Rowdy Tellez taking seat Saturday

Tellez went 2-for-4 with 2 runs scored on Friday, but the lefty batter will take a seat against the Cubs' southpaw a day later. Connor Joe will move to first base and bat third, while Edward Olivares will start in right field and bat out of the cleanup spot.

numberFire's models project Joe for 11.2 and Olivares for 11.6 FanDuel points on Saturday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Pirates' implied total (3.65) is No. 23 in the majors today. Among qualified pitchers this season, Imanaga ranks in the top 10th percentile in xERA (2.59) and walk rate (4.4 percent).
