The Kansas City Royals did not list Emmanuel Rivera as a starter for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Rivera will take a seat Sunday while Nicky Lopez starts at shortstop and bats second, and Hanser Alberto takes over at third base.
Our models project Rivera for 38 more plate appearances this season, with 1 home run, 3 runs, 4 RBI, and a .200 batting average.
