Royals' Mike Moustakas: Scratched from Friday's lineup
Moustakas (thumb) has been scratched from Friday's lineup, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.
Analysis:
He was able to return Wednesday after sitting a couple days with a swollen thumb, but apparently the thumb is still an issue. Christian Colon will take over at third base in Moustakas' absence as Omar Infante mans the keystone. Moustakas currently leads Royals regulars in both home runs (7) and slugging (.536).
