Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz (knee) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Touki Toussaint and the Atlanta Braves.
Ruiz is making his first start since fouling a ball off his knee over the weekend. The young backstop is replacing Riley Adams behind the plate and batting seventh.
Ruiz is averaging 3.9 FanDuel points as a starter for the Nationals. Toussaint is registering a 22.1 strikeout percentage and an 8.3 walk percentage this season, with a 5.07 xERA and a .340 xwOBA.
