Travis d'Arnaud taking seat Thursday afternoon for Atlanta
Atlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander German Marquez and the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
d'Arnaud went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in a loss to the Rockies on Wednesday and he is out of the lineup for Thursday's finale. William Contreras is starting behind the Braves' plate and batting eighth.
numberFire’s models project Contreras for 12.7 FanDuel points and he has a $2,700 salary on Thursday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Braves have an implied total of 4.5 runs. Marquez is registering a 24.2 strikeout percentage and an 8.1 walk percentage this season, with a 3.86 xERA and a .300 xwOBA.
