Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Carson Kelly is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's game against rookie right-hander Kohei Arihara and the Texas Rangers.
Kelly is out of the lineup for the second time in three games after he went 0-for-4 in Tuesday's loss to Texas. Daulton Varsho is covering catching duties for Arizona. Henry Ramos is entering the lineup to make his MLB debut as the starting right fielder and No. 5 batter.
numberFire’s models project Varsho for 10.2 FanDuel points and he has a $2,700 salary on Wednesday’s slate. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks have an implied total of 4.9 runs. Through Arihara's first 32 innings in the majors, the right-hander is registering a 14.5 strikeout percentage and an 8.7 walk percentage, with a 8.30 xERA and a .417 xwOBA.
