St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Sandy Alcantara and the Miami Marlins.
Arenado appears to be getting a maintenance day after going 0-for-11 over the last three games. Matt Carpenter will start on third base and bat cleanup.
numberFire’s models project Carpenter for 9.2 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cardinals have an implied total of 3.7 runs. Alcantara has a 23.4 strikeout percentage and 7.0 walk percentage this season.
