Detroit Tigers outfielder Justin Upton is not in the lineup on Monday.
Upton last got a day off a month ago when he missed a pair of games April 19 and 20. He has played in the last 25 games but will get a rest as Mikie Mahtook is in left field and batting eighth versus the Houston Astros.
Upton is slumping a bit as he is batting just .182/.302/.379 with three home runs and five RBI's in 78 plate appearances this month.
