Athletics' Billy Burns: Out of lineup Thursday
Burns is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.
Analysis:
Coco Crisp will take over in center field for Thursday while Burns gets the night off against the Tim Lincecum-led Angels. Burns has been mired in a slump for much of June, slashing .183/.197/.250 with three RBI. His speed and stolen base potential will help him stay relevant in most formats while he works through his current slump.
