Bethancourt is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Analysis:

Major league pitching continues to baffle Bethancourt -- he's batting .181/.213/.264 with three walks in 75 plate appearances this season. His defense alone is not enough to warrant regular playing time at this point, but he should continue to start against most left-handers.
