Diamondbacks' Ildemaro Vargas recalled, starting Wednesday
Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Ildemaro Vargas is starting in Wednesday afternoon's series finale versus left-hander Eric Lauer and the San Diego Padres.
What It Means:
Vargas was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday after being optioned down a little over a week prior. He'll provide additional infield depth while Wilmer Flores recovers from a foot contusion. The 27-year-old is playing second base and leading off the order on Wednesday. Ketel Marte is in center field. Jarrod Dyson is on the bench.
Vargas has hit just .200 with a homer, 3 doubles, 4 RBI, 7 runs scored, and a steal in 55 plate appearances (26 games) for the Diamondbacks this season. numberFire's models expect him to score 7.5 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He's priced at $2,000.
