Jason Heyward is out of the lineup Saturday.

Heyward is out of the lineup Saturday.

Analysis:

Heyward has two extra-base hits in his last two games, but he will take a seat in favor of Randal Grichuk in right field Saturday. While it seems likely that Heyward will be in the lineup most days given how much the Cardinals are invested in him for this season, there is no denying that Grichuk and Matt Holliday have been better than Heyward on a per-plate-appearance basis. The most common deployment will probably be for Grichuk to play center field with Heyward in right.
