Brandon Crawford out of Giants' lineup
San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
After missing six days with an oblique issue, Crawford played all 14 innings of Monday's loss to the Dodgers, going 0-for-4 with a walk and hit-by-pitch. He stayed in the game after being hit, but he walked gingerly to first. It's unclear if his absence is related to the oblique, the hit-by-pitch or is purely precautionary after Monday's lengthy affair. Ehire Adrianza is starting at shortstop.
Always a defensive wizard, Crawford is in the midst of a breakout season with the bat, posting a career-best .343 wOBA, easily outdoing his 2014 clip of .309. Crawford's wOBA ties him with Troy Tulowitzki for best among shortstops. We have Crawford projected for a .712 OPS, four homers and 17 RBI the rest of the way.
