Lourdes Gurriel (groin) remains out for Diamondbacks Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel (groin) is not in the lineup again on Wednesday versus left-hander Patrick Corbin and the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Gurriel is out for a third straight game due to a groin issue. The Diamondbacks will start Corbin Carroll, Jake McCarthy, and Pavin Smith across the outfield on Wednesday. Smith will drop from the leadoff spot to the six-hole against a lefty.

numberFire’s models project Smith ($2,900) for 10.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks' implied total is 4.93 and the game total is 9.5. Corbin's 4.84 SIERA and 14.0% strikeout rate are both on pace for career-worsts.
