Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rowdy Tellez is not starting in Friday's contest against the Oakland Athletics.
Tellez will receive a breather after Brian Anderson was picked as Milwaukee's designated hitter and Blake Perkins was positioned in right field.
Per Baseball Savant on 139 batted balls this season, Tellez has accounted for a 10.1% barrel rate and a .229 expected average.
