Pirates' Andrew McCutchen: Getting day off Wednesday
McCutchen is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Houston.
Analysis:
The struggling outfielder doubled in a run in Tuesday's win over the Astros, but he'll take a seat Wednesday, marking his first absence from the lineup since Aug. 4. Starling Marte will get the nod in center field and he'll bat in McCutchen's usual No. 3 spot in the order.
