Stephen Vogt starting Tuesday for Atlanta

Atlanta Braves catcher Stephen Vogt is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Sonny Gray and the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

Vogt is starting at catcher over Kevan Smith and hitting eighth. Travis d'Arnaud (thumb) is expected to rejoin the Braves on Wednesday, which will likely push Vogt back to backup duties and send Smith to the minors.

numberFire’s models project Vogt for 7.6 FanDuel points and he has a $2,200 salary on Tuesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Braves have an implied total of 4.8 runs. Gray is registering a 29.1 strikeout percentage with an 8.8 walk percentage this season.
