Travis Shaw on the bench for Red Sox matchup with Tampa Bay

Boston Red Sox infielder Travis Shaw is not in Monday's lineup versus the Tampa Bay Rays.

What It Means:

This is no more than a day of rest for the 26-year-old. Marco Hernandez will fill in at third base while batting ninth against Rays rookie southpaw Blake Snell.

Shaw is having a solid season, slashing .267/.334/.437 with a .334 wOBA, seven homers and 38 RBI's over 299 plate appearances. Our models currently project him to post a .335 wOBA with 11 more lasers and another 36 RBI's over 280 remaining appearances at the plate this season.
