Carson Kelly sitting for Diamondbacks' Thursday matinee
Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Carson Kelly is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Zack Wheeler and the Philadelphia Phillies.
What It Means:
Bryan Holaday is starting at catcher in place of Kelly and hitting eighth.
numberFire’s models project Holaday for 4.6 FanDuel points and he has a $2,000 salary on Thursday slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have an implied total of 3.4 runs. Wheeler is registering a 29.3 strikeout percentage and a 5.5 walk percentage this season, with a 2.72 xERA and a .255 xwOBA, the latter two of which both rank in the top 7% of the league.
