Nick Ahmed absent for Arizona Wednesday afternoon
Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Nick Ahmed is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Chris Flexen and the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
Ahmed went hitless with a strikeout in both of the first two games of the series. Geraldo Perdomo is replacing Ahmed at shortstop on Wednesday afternoon and hitting ninth.
numberFire’s models project Perdomo ($2,700) for 9.4 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Diamondbacks' implied total is 5.51 runs, third-highest on the board, and the game total is 9.5. Flexen offers an optimal matchup, as he has a terrible 6.89 ERA and measly 15.8% strikeout rate this season.
