Johan Rojas joining Phillies bench Wednesday afternoon

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Johan Rojas is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Bryce Elder and the Atlanta Braves.

What It Means:

Rojas scored a run and extended his hitting streak to five games on Tuesday, but he will take a breather for the matinee. Brandon Marsh will slide to center field and Kyle Schwarber will shift to left field. Bryce Harper will serve as the designated hitter. Jake Cave will start on first base and bat eighth.

numberFire’s models project Marsh ($2,800) for 10.3 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Phillies' implied total is 4.37 and the game total is 9.5. Elder has a 3.50 ERA and 4.31 xERA this season, with a 40.8% hard-hit rate, 18.2% strikeout rate (bottom 16th percentile of league), and 7.8% walk rate.
