Freeman has been struggling a bit of late, hitting .175 (10-for-57) with just one homer and two RBI over his last 15 games. He’ll take a seat for the second time in the past nine games for Los Angeles with Enrique Hernández filling in at the cold corner to face Kansas City lefty Kris Bubic.

Robert takes a seat for the third consecutive game as he continues to nurse an ongoing left hamstring issue that cropped up during Wednesday’s game against the Diamondbacks. It’ll be veteran defensive specialist Michael A. Taylor continuing to patrol center field in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day heading into Tuesday’s showdown against the Dodgers.

Polanco takes a seat for the second consecutive game with slugging backstop Cal Raleigh, who leads the majors with 32 round-trippers this season, taking a break from catching with a turn at DH on Sunday afternoon in Texas.

Schmitt has been scratched for the second straight game as he continues to deal with a wrist contusion that he suffered when he was hit by a pitch earlier this week. The fact he’s been in San Francisco’s original lineup for both games over the weekend against Chicago seems to indicate that he’ll avoid the injured list. He’ll open Sunday’s contest on the bench with veteran Wilmer Flores taking over at the cold corner.

Westburg will sit out for the second straight contest, and fifth time in the last seven games, after aggravating a left index finger during Friday’s showdown. The 26-year-old infielder was spotted playing catch during pregame drills with a wrap on his finger. It’s an encouraging sign that he’s managed to avoid a trip to the injured list, but that might be inevitable if he’s not ready to play at some point towards the middle of next week. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. It’ll be veteran Ramón Urías continuing to handle the hot corner in his absence.

No word yet on the reason for the swap. Rookie backstop Willie MacIver will handle the catching duties during Sunday’s series finale against the Yankees.
