Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte is not in the lineup Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds.
Marte is taking the afternoon off for the Pirates after playing the last nine in a row. Austin Meadows is moving over to centerfield, while Gregory Polanco is taking over in right field. Polanco is hitting seventh versus right-hander Anthony DeSclafani.
Our models project Marte for a .277 batting average with 8 home runs, 45 runs scored, 34 RBI, and 17 steals over 323 plate appearances remaining this season.
