George Springer not in Astros' Saturday lineup

Houston Astros outfielder George Springer is sitting on Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles.

What It Means:

Springer will be replaced in center field by Jake Marisnick. Alex Bregman will replace Carlos Correa at shortstop. Kyle Tucker will replace Josh Reddick in right field. Jose Altuve will replace Marwin Gonzalez at second base. Yuli Gurriel will replace J.D. Davis at third base. Brian McCann will replace Martin Maldonado behind the plate. Myles Straw will replace Tony Kemp in left field.

Our models project Springer for a .286 batting average in nine plate appearances going forward.
