Christian Encarnacion-Strand sitting Wednesday for Reds
Cincinnati Reds infielder Christian Encarnacion-Strand is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Bryce Miller and the Seattle Mariners.
What It Means:

Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Reds' implied total (3.56) and the game total (7.5) are both among the lowest in the majors on Wednesday.
