Pavin Smith sitting Tuesday night for Arizona
Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Pavin Smith is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against left-hander Sean Manaea and the San Diego Padres.
What It Means:
The Diamondbacks are holding the lefty-hitting Smith out of the order against the Padres' southpaw. Christian Walker is starting on first base again while Ketel Marte replaces Smith at designated hitter and bats third.
numberFire’s models project Marte for 9.3 FanDuel points on Tuesday, and he has a $3,100 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks’ implied total (3.30) is second-lowest out of the 26 teams available on the Main slate.
