Carlos Beltran

Astros' Carlos Beltran is out for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader

Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Carlos Beltran is out of the team's Game 1 lineup Saturday versus the Oakland Athletics.

What It Means:

As Alex Bregman enters the lineup and Carlos Correa moves to the DH spot, Beltran will be forced to serve in a bench role for the first of two games today in Oakland.

With 14 homers and a .233 average on the year, our algorithms like Beltran to contribute 2 home runs and 9 RBI over 69 plate appearances the rest of the season.
