Freese is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.
Analysis:
There has been nothing to suggest this is anything more than a routine day off for the 32-year-old following eight straight starts. Freese has hit safely in seven straight games, giving him a .391 average so far in July, but he has failed to record an extra-base hit over that span. Taylor Featherston will man third base and bat eighth.
