Kole Calhoun kept out of Diamondbacks' lineup Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks right fielder Kole Calhoun is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener against left-hander Patrick Corbin and the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Calhoun appears to be getting a day off versus the Nationals' lefty. Pavin Smith will make the start in right field and the Diamondbacks have moved Carson Kelly up to second in the order.

numberFire’s models project Kelly for 9.8 FanDuel points versus the Nationals and he has a salary of $2,200 on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have an implied total of 3.6 runs versus Corbin and the Nationals.
