Elvis Andrus idle for White Sox Wednesday afternoon

Chicago White Sox infielder Elvis Andrus is not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Josiah Gray and the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

Andrus will sit for the matinee after his four-game hitting streak ended on Tuesday night. Lenyn Sosa will replace Andrus on second base and bat eighth.

Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the White Sox's implied total is 4.31 and the game total is 9.0. Gray has a 5.04 xERA hiding behind his 4.07 ERA this season, with a poor strikeout rate (bottom 29th percentile) and even worse walk rate (bottom 10th).
