Jace Peterson absent Thursday afternoon for Arizona
Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Jace Peterson is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Touki Toussaint and the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
Peterson started on third base in the first two games of the series and went 1-for-6 with a walk, a steal, and a run scored. Emmanuel Rivera will take over on the hot corner Thursday and hit eighth.
numberFire’s models project Rivera ($2,300) for 7.4 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks' implied total is 4.94 and the game total is 9.0. Toussaint has an ugly 5.10 ERA and 5.34 xERA this season, with a 20.1% strikeout rate and one of the worst walk rates among qualified starters (14.8%).
