Derek Dietrich back on Miami bench

Miami Marlins infielder Derek Dietrich is not in the team's starting lineup on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals.

What It Means:

Dietrich will turn over third base duties to Martin Prado today as he returns to the bench. Prado hits sixth against Michael Wacha.

In 71 games, Dietrich has 4 home runs, 22 RBI and a .244 average on the year. Going forward, our models expect him to add 3 home runs and 20 RBI on a .257 average in 194 plate appearances.
