FanDuel Fantasy Points Per Game More DFS

Orlando Arcia absent for Braves Wednesday afternoon

Atlanta Braves infielder Orlando Arcia is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies.

What It Means:

Arcia will take a maintenance day after he failed to record a hit in seven of the last eight games. Nicky Lopez will cover shortstop and hit ninth for Atlanta.

numberFire’s models project Lopez ($2,400) for 7.6 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Braves' implied total is 5.13, second-best on the board, and the game total is 9.5. Nola has a 4.62 ERA and 3.80 xERA this season, with a 38.1% hard-hit rate, 24.9% strikeout rate, and 6.0% walk rate (top 84th percentile of league).
