Christian Vazquez (knee) in Boston's lineup Wednesday
Boston Red Sox catcher Christian Vazquez (knee) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against left-hander Robbie Ray and the Toronto Blue Jays.
What It Means:
Vazquez was held out Monday with a minor knee issue. He was supposed to return on Tuesday but the game was rained out. Vazquez will catch for Garrett Richards on Wednesday and hit seventh. Kevin Plawecki should be available off the bench after starting last game.
numberFire’s models project Vazquez for 8.3 FanDuel points and he has a $2,400 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Red Sox have an implied total of 4.4 runs. Among Wednesday's listed starters, Ray is registering the best strikeout rate this season (31.9 percent).
