Tampa Bay Rays infielder Jonathan Aranda is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against left-hander Dallas Keuchel and the Minnesota Twins.
The left-handed hitting Aranda is taking a seat against a southpaw. Isaac Paredes is shifting to designated hitter and batting cleanup while Curtis Mead mans the hot corner and bats fifth.
numberFire’s models project Paredes ($7,000) for 9.8 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rays' implied total is 4.43 and the game total is 8.5. Keuchel has a 4.78 ERA and uglier 5.65 xERA across 26 1/3 innings this season. His 12.5% strikeout rate is lowest on the Wednesday slate among projected starters.
