Taylor is not in the lineup Friday against the Astros, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times reports.

Analysis:

Taylor will turn the shortstop position back over to Brad Miller following three straight starts, with right-hander Brad Peacock on the hill for Houston. It seems the two will continue to split time, but Taylor got a start against a right-hander earlier in the week, so it likely won't be a strict platoon.
