Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic was scratched on Wednesday versus the Detroit Tigers due to soreness from being hit by a pitch in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader.
Kelenic played in the second game on Tuesday and he was initially in the lineup for Wednesday's regular-season finale, but the Mariners have decided to prioritize his health for the Wild Card round this weekend. Taylor Trammell, who was called up from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday, will cover left field for Kelenic and hit sixth.
Trammell is numberFire's fifth-best point-per-dollar value among batters on the final day of the regular season. He has a $2,000 salary and our models project him for 11.4 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mariners' implied total (4.05) is tied for No. 8 in the majors today.
