Houston Astros catcher Martin Maldonado is not in the starting lineup against left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez and the Detroit Tigers.
The Astros are giving Maldonado a breather in the day game after a night game. Cesar Salazar will make his first MLB start and hit ninth. Yainer Diaz will be available off the bench.
numberFire’s models project Salazar ($2,000) for 7.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros' implied total is 4.49 (fifth-highest on the board) and the game total is 7.5.
