Chase Utley

Chase Utley not in Dodgers' starting lineup on Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Chase Utley is not starting on Wednesday versus the Minnesota Twins.

What It Means:

Logan Forsythe is back in the starting lineup and manning second base for the Dodgers on Wednesday, so Utley will grab a seat on the bench against right-hander Ervin Santana and the Twins. He's slashing .229/.324/.397 with 6 homers, 24 RBI, 29 runs scored, and 4 steals in 248 plate appearances (82 games) this season.

numberFire's models project Utley to turn in a .256 batting average with 3 dingers, 15 RBI, 19 runs scored, and 2 steals in 152 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
