What It Means:

This looks to be just a day of rest for Chris Carter. The lefty Jon Singleton will go up against Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz. Buchholz has actually fared better against lefties this year, striking them out 24.4 percent of the time and holding them to a .279 wOBA. Singleton only has three hits in 18 big league plate appearances this year, but he was displaying solid power in Triple-A with 17 home runs.
