Nationals' Yan Gomes getting breather Wednesday
Washington Nationals catcher Yan Gomes is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against right-hander Vince Velasquez and the Philadelphia Phillies.
What It Means:
Gomes is likely getting a standard breather after catching all nine innings for the Nationals on Tuesday night. Alex Avila will catch Erick Fedde on Wednesday afternoon and hit sixth.
numberFire’s models project Avila for 10.2 FanDuel points and he has a $2,100 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Nationals have an implied total of 4.5 runs.
