Tampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against left-hander Martin Perez and the Boston Red Sox.
Wendle will sit against the lefty while Kevin Padlo starts on third base and bats eighth in his MLB debut. Padlo was recalled from Triple-A Durham to replace Kevin Kiermaier (quad) on the active roster.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Rays have the fourth-highest implied total (4.9 runs) out of 28 teams playing Tuesday.
