Reds' Scooter Gennett out of the starting lineup

Cincinnati Reds infielder Scooter Gennett is out of the starting lineup for Friday's road game against the Chicago Cubs.

What It Means:

Zack Cozart (quad) is back in the lineup starting at shortstop this afternoon, and Jose Peraza will slide over to second base, sending Gennett to the bench.

Gennett has a career-high .370 wOBA through 138 games in 2017, and numberFire's models project him to bat .300 in a small sample over the remainder of the season.
