Rajai Davis not in Oakland's starting lineup on Thursday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Rajai Davis is not making the start for Thursday's game against the Houston Astros.

What It Means:

After two straight starts, Davis will head to the bench for a day off. In his place, Matt Joyce will man left as Matt Olson plays right field.

Davis is slashing .212/.264/.321 on the year. We project him for a .253 average and 4 home runs the rest of the season.
