Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Jeff Mathis is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Oakland Athletics.
With a righty on the mound, Alex Avila is getting the nod behind the plate. Mathis will sit this one out after going 1-for-3 and scoring two runs in last night's contest.
Mathis is projected for 2 home runs, 10 RBI and a .218 average the rest of the season.
