Diamondbacks' Jose Herrera on bench Monday night
Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Jose Herrera is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against right-hander Tyler Beede and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Carson Kelly will catch for Zac Gallen and hit eighth. Herrera started behind the plate on Sunday.
Kelly has a $2,500 salary on Monday and numberFire’s models project him for 9.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks’ implied total (4.75) is tied for second-highest in the majors on Monday. Beede is registering a 4.81 SIERA, 13.3% strikeout rate, and 10.1% walk rate this season, and he will be followed by a Pirates' bullpen that has the highest xFIP (4.32) in the majors.
