Athletics' Seth Brown sitting versus Yankees Monday

The Oakland Athletics did not include Seth Brown in their lineup for Monday's game against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

Brown will catch a breather Monday while Chad Pinder takes over at designated hitter, and Ramon Laureano starts in right field. Laureano is listed third in the batting order.

Our models project Brown to make 255 more plate appearances this season, with 13 home runs, 33 runs, 34 RBI, and a .236 batting average.
