Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger is not starting in Saturday's lineup against the Houston Astros.
Haniger will take a break after Jarred Kelenic was moved to right field, Eugenio Suarez was picked as Seattle's designated hitter, and Abraham Toro was chosen as Saturday's third baseman.
According to Baseball Savant on 25 batted balls this season, Haniger has produced a 20% barrel rate and a .284 expected average.
