Cubs' Jason Heyward: Out of lineup Monday

Heyward is out of the lineup Monday against the Pirates.

Analysis:

This appears to be a typical day off for Heyward, who is currently in the midst of a small slump where he hasn't gotten a hit since April 24. This streak has dropped his batting average to .211 on the season, although his 13 RBI and runs are helping to offset the lack of hits thus far. Matt Szczur will man right field and bat seventh while Heyward gets the day off.
