Edwin Encarnacion

Indians' Edwin Encarnacion not in Monday's starting lineup

The Indians are giving Edwin Encarnacion the day off on Monday.

What It Means:

It's nothing more than a breather for Encarnacion, who will give way to rookie Francisco Mejia against the White Sox on Monday.

Our models project Encarnacion to post an .890 OPS with 5 home runs, 16 RBI and 13 runs scored over 100 remaining plate appearances in 2017.
