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