Dodgers giving Yasmani Grandal night off

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Yasmani Grandal is not in the lineup Thursday against the Colorado Rockies.

What It Means:

Grandal will take a seat after playing behind the plate for the past three games. Austin Barnes is catching Hyun-Jin Ryu while Jeff Hoffman toes the rubber for Colorado.

Grandal is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak, bringing his slash to .268/.345/.454 on the season. He has four home runs and 14 RBI's in 111 plate appearances.
