FanDuel Fantasy Points Per Game More DFS

J.D. Martinez joining Dodgers bench Wednesday afternoon

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter J.D. Martinez is not in the lineup on Wednesday afternoon versus right-hander Dean Kremer and the Baltimore Orioles.

What It Means:

Martinez will take a rare breather after he went 2-for-9 with 2 RBI, a run scored, and 4 strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Will Smith will shift to DH and bat cleanup while Austin Barnes will catch for Julio Urias and hit ninth. Max Muncy will bat third and David Peralta will hit fifth.

numberFire’s models project Smith ($3,500) for 10.5 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Dodgers' implied total is 4.84 and the game total is 9.0. Kremer has a 4.59 ERA and 5.39 xERA (bottom 13th percentile in MLB) this season, with a 45.0% hard-hit rate (bottom 16th), 22.7% strikeout rate, and 6.1% walk rate.
