Astros' Luis Valbuena: Not part of Monday's lineup
Valbuena is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks, according to MLB.com's Brian McTaggart.
Analysis:
Valbuena started the last six games for the Astros, but he will be held out Monday with the team employing a righty-heavy lineup against Diamondbacks starter Edwin Escobar. Valbuena has seen time at both first base and third base of late, but Tyler White and Marwin Gonzalez, respectively, will play those positions Monday.
