Alex Verdugo is not in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Rockies.
This appears to just be a day of rest for Verdugo. He’ll get a break against Colorado with Eddie Rosario starting in left field. Michael Harris II moves up to the leadoff spot in Verdugo’s absence.
Alex Verdugo finished 4-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a walk against the Diamondbacks on Sunday.
Verdugo already has two four-hit games for the Braves, though he’s 4-for-28 in his other six contests. He isn’t the worst option in mixed leagues for teams looking more for batting average than homers or steals. However, his limitations in those categories hold him back from sporting real value.
Alex Verdugo is absent from Atlanta’s lineup Wednesday for the first time since being called up last week.
The Braves have Eli White in left field and Michael Harris II leading off against the Cardinals. Verdugo has hit .273/.304/.409 with four runs scored in five games as the Braves’ leadoff man.
Alex Verdugo went 4-for-5 with two doubles and two runs scored in a 4-3 win Saturday over the Twins.
