Brent Morel starting at third for Pirates
Brent Morel is starting at third base and batting seventh for the Pirates Tuesday night.
What It Means:
As a result of the Jordy Mercer injury, Morel finds himself in the lineup against Jason Vargas and the Royals. Morel has a career slash line of .233/.295/.353 against left-handed pitching to go along with six home runs in 206 at bats. While those numbers aren't terrible, he's not a recommended option tonight batting seventh.
