George Springer (back) remains out of lineup Wednesday for Astros
Houston Astros outfielder George Springer is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against right-hander Ivan Nova and the Chicago White Sox.
What It Means:
It's Springer's third straight absence due to back stiffness after leaving Sunday's contest early. Michael Brantley, Jake Marisnick, and Josh Reddick are in the outfield for Houston from left to right.
Springer is slashing .313/.396/.654 this season with 17 homers, 9 doubles, 42 RBI, 41 runs scored, and 4 steals through 212 plate appearances.
