Tampa Bay Rays second baseman/outfielder Joey Wendle is out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the Los Angeles Angels.
Wendle has hit safely in five straight starts but he will grab a seat on the bench in Tuesday's series opener. Mallex Smith will man left field and Kevin Kiermiaer will return to center.
Wendle is averaging 7.7 FanDuel points per game this season. numberFire's models project him to hit .270 with 3 homers, 17 RBI, 4 steals, and 22 runs scored over the rest of the year.
