Cincinnati's Josh VanMeter out of Wednesday's lineup

Cincinnati Reds utility player Josh VanMeter is not starting on Wednesday afternoon versus right-hander Zach Plesac and the Cleveland Indians.

What It Means:

VanMeter went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in Tuesday's loss to the Indians. Jesse Winker is moving to left field while Joey Votto plays designated hitter as the Reds wrap up this two-game interleague set in Cleveland.

numberFire's metrics believe VanMeter will only see 68 more plate appearances this season.
