Astros' Evan Gattis out of lineup versus Twins
Houston Astros designated hitter Evan Gattis is not in the lineup for Wednesday's showdown with the Minnesota Twins.
What It Means:
No injury to report here, just a regular day off for Gattis. Preston Tucker slides into the slugger's designated hitter slot and is hitting sixth.
Gattis is off to a slow start in 2016, slashing .204/.267/.333 with one home run and a .264 wOBA across 60 plate appearances. Our models currently project Gattis to slash .249/.304/.435 with 16 home runs and a .315 wOBA over the remaining course of the season.
