Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Jeff Mathis is not starting on Friday against the Minnesota Twins.
Mathis will head to the bench after starting behind the dish in Thursday's series finale. Chris Iannetta will catch right-hander Zack Godley and bat seventh versus Twins right-hander Ervin Santana on Friday night.
numberFire's models project Mathis to turn in a .228 batting average with 5 RBI and 6 runs scored in 63 plate appearances over the remainder of the season.
