Anthony Alford out of Pittsburgh's Saturday lineup

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Anthony Alford is not starting in Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Alford will head to Pittsburghs' bench after Ben Gamel was moved to left, Yoshi Tsutsugo was shifted to right field, and Colin Moran was picked as Pittsburgh's first baseman.

Per Baseball Savant on 41 batted balls this season, Alford has produced a 17.1% barrel rate and a .197 expected average.
