Jeff Mathis

Arizona's Jeff Mathis will catch and bat eighth Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Jeff Mathis is in the lineup, batting eighth on Monday.

What It Means:

Mathis continues to rotate behind the plate with Chris Iannetta with Mathis getting the nod Monday after sitting out on Sunday.

The Diamondbacks have the fourth-highest implied run total (4.78) on Monday's short slate. Combine that with Mathis costing just $2,100 and the catcher makes for a viable value option versus the New York Mets.
