3 years agoOakland Athletics second baseman/designated hitter Jed Lowrie is not in the lineup for the fourth time in six games for Monday's matchup against the Seattle Mariners. The A's were facing a lefty in all of those games, so it's clear he's in a strict platoon. He's slashing .244/.317/.396 with 14 HRs over 135 games and has a .686 OPS against southpaws. Khris Davis will get his fourth start at DH in the past six games. Fantasy managers should ignore him in all leagues as he's hitting an ugly .200 over 34 games this year, and his power has all but disappeared with four long balls in his last 64 games across two seasons.--Spencer Seguin - RotoBaller
