Brandon Crawford out of Giants' lineup Saturday

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford is not in the starting lineup on Saturday.

What It Means:

As a lefty, it's a bad matchup for Crawford against Colorado Rockies southpaw Kyle Freeland. He'll take a seat and Kelby Tomlinson will start at short.

Our models project Crawford to hit .270 with 6 home runs, 36 runs, 38 RBI, and 4 stolen bases in 325 more plate appearances this year.
