Jose Martinez (ankle) returns to Cardinals' lineup on Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Jose Martinez (ankle) is starting on Wednesday against the Colorado Rockies.

What It Means:

Martinez was held out of the lineup in the past three games while nursing an ankle injury. He also was reportedly shopped around at the trade deadline. The 30-year-old will return to first base and bat fifth versus Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland while Matt Carpenter returns to third base. Jedd Gyroko will be available off the Cardinals' bench.

numberFire's models project Martinez to score 9.8 FanDuel points at a cost of $2,700 on Wednesday.
