David Peralta on Diamondbacks' bench Monday versus lefty
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder David Peralta is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against left-hander Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
What It Means:
The left-handed hitting Peralta is riding pine versus the Dodgers' southpaw. Henry Ramos is shifting to left field while Jake McCarthy enters the lineup to play right field and hit eighth.
numberFire’s models project Ramos for 6.7 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Monday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have an implied total of 3.1 runs, which is the lowest in the majors on Monday. Kershaw is registering a 30.1 strikeout percentage and a 4.5 walk percentage (top 4% of the league) this season, with a 3.16 xERA and a .273 xwOBA.
