Jesus Aguilar joining Marlins' bench versus Cardinals

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Johan Oviedo and the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Aguilar has reached base safely in 11 straight games but he will take a seat Wednesday afternoon. Lewin Diaz will start on first base and bat fifth.

numberFire’s models project Diaz for 8.1 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Marlins have an implied total of 3.8 runs. Oviedo has a 19.5 strikeout percentage and 14.1 walk percentage this season.
