Rio Ruiz resting for Orioles in Wednesday finale
Baltimore Orioles third baseman Rio Ruiz will not start in Wednesday's series finale against left-hander Cole Hamels and the Atlanta Braves.
It looks like a breather for Ruiz, who is 2-for-19 over his last six games. Hanser Alberto will move to the hot corner and bat leadoff while Andrew Velazquez starts on second base and bats ninth.
numberFire's models expect Velazquez to score 8.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday with a salary of $2,000. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Orioles have an implied total of 4.38 runs.
