San Diego's Austin Nola sitting Wednesday afternoon

San Diego Padres catcher Austin Nola is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against right-hander Frankie Montas and the Oakland Athletics.

What It Means:

Nola will take a maintenance day after he went 4-for-5 with a double, 2 RBI, a run, and a strikeout in Tuesday's win over the Athletics. Victor Caratini is catching for Joe Musgrove on Wednesday afternoon and hitting eighth.

numberFire’s models project Caratini for 7.4 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Padres have an implied total of 3.9 runs. Montas is registering a 25.9 strikeout percentage with a 6.5 walk percentage this season.
