Curtis Granderson not in Mets' lineup Tuesday

New York Mets outfielder Curtis Granderson is not in the lineup on Tuesday against the New York Yankees.

What It Means:

The newly-acquired Jay Bruce will start in right field, while Alejandro De Aza gets the start in center and Michael Conforto starts in left on Tuesday.

Granderson's year has been solid, but unspectacular, and he's hitting .233/.326/.428 with a .324 wOBA through 423 plate appearances, while his 0.26 nERD ranks only 171st in the majors.
