Alex Jackson sitting for Marlins versus Nationals

Miami Marlins catcher Alex Jackson is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Josh Rogers and the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Sandy Leon is starting over Jackson and hitting seventh. Jorge Alfaro is still out with a calf issue.

numberFire’s models project Leon for 7.4 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Marlins have an implied total of 4.7 runs. Through 12 1/3 innings this season, Rogers is registering an 11.8 strikeout percentage and a 7.8 walk percentage, with a 5.05 xERA and a .339 xwOBA.
