Francisco Alvarez absent Wednesday for Mets
New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale against right-hander Eury Perez and the Miami Marlins.
What It Means:
Alvarez went 0-for-4 and struck out twice as the starting catcher on Tuesday. Omar Narvaez will catch for Kodai Senga and hit ninth in Wednesday's matchup.
numberFire’s models project Narvaez ($2,100) for 6.1 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Mets' implied total is 3.68 and the game total is 7.5. Perez has elite strikeout and whiff rates in his first big-league season, with a 3.06 ERA and 3.67 xERA (top 70th percentile).
