A.J. Ellis in at catcher on Saturday for Miami
Miami Marlins catcher A.J. Ellis is making the start at catcher as the Marlins square off with the Atlanta Braves Saturday night.
What It Means:
Fresh off a DL stint, Justin Bour is getting a scheduled day off, which moves J.T. Realmuto to first base and allows Ellis to catch Adam Conley tonight. He will hit seventh against lefty Max Fried.
Ellis is hitting just .171 with a 23.7% strikeout rate against southpaws. Staring one down this evening, he's projected for 8.0 FanDuel points at a bargain price of $2,000.
