Maikel Franco is out Tuesday in Philadelphia

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Maikel Franco is not in the lineup on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

Franco is getting a day off with J.P. Crawford moving back over to the hot corner on Tuesday. Franco will serve as one of the first bats off the bench as the Phillies do battle with Yu Darvish.

Our models project Franco for a .271 batting average, with 2 home runs, 7 RBI, and 6 runs scored over 53 plate appearances remaining this season.
