daily projection question

Two guys i like today, that the projections dont seem to.

Trumbo and Gennett. Could you give some insight into the major factors in their projections today?

Gennett does have a pretty decent projection for today but he is definitely hurt by being his move to the 7 hole in the lineup. As for Trumbo he struggles to get on base and is in the middle of a crappy lineup that inhibits his ability to get counting stats.

Gennett does get a boost after the factors, but yes, batting 7th over 2nd hurts his projection. For Trumbo, he's about break-even and projected near his normal level after factors are applied. Trumbo gets a boost vs. the lefty, but Matzek has a decent hr-rate allowed which reduces Trumbo's HR value.
