Kole Calhoun kept out of Diamondbacks' lineup Thursday afternoon

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Charlie Morton and the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Pavin Smith is replacing Calhoun in right field and hitting second. He is followed in the order by David Peralta and Christian Walker.

numberFire’s models project Smith for 9.5 FanDuel points and he has a $2,300 salary on Thursday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have an implied total of 3.6 runs, the second-lowest total in the majors on Thursday. Morton is registering a 28.0 strikeout percentage and a 7.7 walk percentage this season, with a 3.40 xERA and a .283 xwOBA.
