Marlins' Pablo Lopez scratched Monday, start pushed to Tuesday
Miami Marlins pitcher Pablo Lopez has been scratched from his scheduled start on Monday against the Boston Red Sox.
What It Means:
Lopez will pitch on Tuesday at home versus the Colorado Rockies instead because the Marlins want to give the right-hander an extra day of rest. As a result, Lopez will now get to face an inferior Rockies' lineup at home, rather than the Red Sox in Fenway. The Marlins have yet to announce a replacement starter for Monday's matchup.
Lopez is averaging 31.0 FanDuel points per start this season with career-lows in ERA (2.82) and WHIP (1.15) over 67 innings. He may be slightly over-performing at this point in the year, as indicated by Lopez's FIP (3.41) and xERA (3.46).
