Arizona's David Peralta resting on Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder David Peralta is out of Friday's starting lineup against the San Diego Padres.

What It Means:

Peralta will head to the bench in a lefty versus lefty matchup after Wyatt Mathisen was announced as Friday's starter against Blake Snell. Expect Peralta to see the majority of his playing time against right-handers.

For the 2021 season, our models project Peralta to produce a .279 average with 14 home runs and 71 RBI in 545 plate appearances.
