Victor Caratini idle Wednesday for Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Victor Caratini is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Yu Darvish and the San Diego Padres.
Omar Narvaez is replacing Caratini at catcher and hitting seventh. Kolten Wong is leading off after batting seventh on Tuesday against a southpaw. Andrew McCutchen has dropped from the leadoff role to cleanup duties.
numberFire’s models project Narvaez for 9.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday, and he has a $2,200 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the park factor in the Brewers-Padres matchup is the weakest for hitters out of the 13 games being played.
