Joey Wendle joining Rays' bench versus Nationals
Tampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against left-hander Jon Lester and the Washington Nationals.
What It Means:
Wendle is grabbing a seat as the Rays wrap up a two-game set in a National League park. Yandy Diaz is making the start on third base in place of Wendle and batting cleanup.
numberFire’s models project Diaz for 8.5 FanDuel points and he has a $2,700 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, Lester's strikeout percentage this season (15.6) is the second-worst among Wednesday's listed starters.
