Taylor Motter taking seat for Cardinals Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Taylor Motter is not in the lineup on Tuesday against right-hander Merrill Kelly and the Arizona Diamondbacks.

What It Means:

Motter will take a seat after he helped fill in on second base the past two games. Nolan Gorman will return to the keystone and bat sixth after he missed two games with a back injury.

numberFire’s models project Gorman ($3,400) for 12.0 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cardinals' implied total is 4.39 and the game total is 9.0. Kelly has a 3.22 ERA in front of a 4.31 xERA this season, with a 40.3% hard-hit rate, 25.7% strikeout rate, and 9.7% walk rate.
