Omar Infante not in Royals' lineup Tuesday
Kansas City Royals second baseman Omar Infante is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Cleveland Indians.
This appears to be just an off day for Infante. Whit Merrifield earns the start at second base and will bat leadoff against Cleveland's Josh Tomlin. Infante isn't doing much with the bat this season, hitting just .239 with 11 RBI's in 149 plate appearances.
Infante's overall slash this season is .239/.279/.321 with no home runs and a .261 wOBA. Our models currently project him to hit .237/.284/.341 with four home runs and a .268 wOBA over the remaining course of the season.
