Corban Joseph

Corban Joseph absent from Orioles' lineup Tuesday

Baltimore Orioles second/first baseman Corban Joseph is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Washington Nationals

What It Means:

It's the start of another Beltway series in Washington, D.C., so in order to keep Mark Trumbo's bat in the lineup, Joseph will take a seat in this one. Trumbo is sticking in the cleanup spot against right-hander Jefry Rodriguez.

Our models project Joseph for a .222 batting average with 1 home run, 4 runs scored, and 4 RBI over 41 plate appearances remaining this season.
