St. Louis Cardinals first/third baseman Matt Carpenter is getting a night off on Wednesday against the San Diego Padres.
Carpenter has a routine day off Wednesday, so Greg Garcia is in the game at third, while Jedd Gyorko is moving to first base. Expect Carpenter back in the lineup on Thursday.
Our models project Carpenter for a .269 batting average, with 5 home run, 19 RBI, and 19 runs scored over 141 plate appearances remaining this season
