Pablo Sandoval back on bench as Giants return home
San Francisco Giants third baseman/designated hitter Pablo Sandoval is not in Monday's lineup against the Washington Nationals.
What It Means:
Sandoval went a combined 2-for-8 with 1 double, 1 RBI, 1 run, and 4 strikeouts while playing designated hitter versus the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday and Sunday. The Giants are back home and playing under National League rules for tonight's series opener against left-hander Gio Gonzalez and the Nationals, so Sandoval will return to the bench.
Sandoval is averaging 4.2 FanDuel points per game this season. numberFire's models project him to bat .233 with 1 home run in limited action over the rest of the year.
