What It Means:

The Brewers are giving Contreras a breather after five straight starts. Victor Caratini will catch for Wade Miley and bat sixth in Thursday's matinee. Jesse Winker will enter the lineup as the designated hitter and No. 2 batter while Rowdy Tellez shifts to first base in place of an idle Luke Voit and bats cleanup. Willy Adames will bat between Winker and Tellez. Brian Anderson will replace Mike Brosseau on third base and hit fifth.

numberFire’s models project Caratini ($2,800) for 10.9 FanDuel points on Thursday. Winker ($2,900) is projected for 11.8 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Brewers' implied total is the highest on the board at 6.50 and the game total (12.0) is 2.5 runs higher than any other. Across 35 career innings, Seabold owns a 4.59 xFIP and 18.3% strikeout rate.
