Kendrys Morales out of the Blue Jays' lineup on Friday

Toronto Blue Jays designated hitter Kendrys Morales is out of the lineup against the Oakland Athletics on Friday.

What It Means:

It's a routine day off for Morales. Josh Donaldson will take over designated hitting duties while Russell Martin covers third base and Luke Maile replaces Morales in the lineup, starting at catcher.

Morales is averaging 6.1 FanDuel points per game to open the 2018 season. He is slashing only .146/.239/.260 with an ugly .213 wOBA.
