Athletics' Sean Murphy on bench Thursday afternoon
Oakland Athletics catcher Sean Murphy is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Kolby Allard and the Texas Rangers.
What It Means:
Murphy went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and a double in a loss on Wednesday. It was his second home run in three games and Murphy's 10th straight game reaching base. Aramis Garcia will catch for Chris Bassitt and hit ninth.
numberFire’s models project Garcia for 6.5 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Athletics have an implied total of 4.3 runs. Allard is registering a 26.5 strikeout percentage with a 6.2 walk percentage this season.
