Yonny Hernandez heading back to Arizona bench Friday afternoon

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Yonny Hernandez is not in the starting lineup for Friday afternoon's series opener against right-hander Chris Bassitt and the New York Mets.

What It Means:

Hernandez made his first start in the Diamondbacks' last game, but he is heading back to the bench Friday. Sergio Alcantara is replacing Hernandez on third base and batting seventh.

numberFire’s models project Alcantara for 6.8 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,100 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have the lowest implied total (3.23) in the majors on Friday.
