Rays giving Matt Duffy day off versus Red Sox

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Matt Duffy is getting the day off Wednesday against the Red Sox.

What It Means:

Tim Beckham is at shortstop for the Rays and batting seventh versus Boston right-hander Steven Wright. It's a standard day of maintenance for Duffy.

Across 351 plate appearances for both the Rays and Oakland Athletics this year, Duffy owns just a .097 ISO and .291 wOBA, both of which are below the current league average (.163 and .318, respectively). We expect him to record a .699 OPS over the remainder of the season.
