Indians' Abraham Almonte: Out of Wednesday's lineup
Almonte is out of the lineup Wednesday against the A's, MLB.com's Jordan Bastian reports.
Analysis:
After starting the last six games and notching just four hits with zero walks over that span, Almonte will take a seat with Brandon Guyer getting a rare start against a righty (Kendall Graveman) on Wednesday. The Indians have several similar options to deploy in left field, depending on the matchup or who is swinging the hottest bat, so consistent playing time is not guaranteed for Almonte down the stretch.
