Jed Lowrie not starting for Athletics on Thursday
Oakland Athletics second baseman Jed Lowrie is not starting on Thursday versus the Toronto Blue Jays.
What It Means:
It's just a breather for Lowrie, who hasn't recorded a hit in three straight contests (0-for-9), so a day off should serve him well. Adam Rosales is starting at second base and batting eighth versus Blue Jays right-hander Marcus Stroman.
Lowrie is slashing .266/.338/.438 with 10 home runs, 34 RBI, and 54 runs scored in 402 plate appearances (96 games) this season. numberFire's models project him to record a .272 batting average with 5 dingers, 25 RBI, and 23 runs scored in 226 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
