Hosmer is not in the lineup Sunday against the Astros, Josh Vernier of 610 Sports Radio Kansas City reports.
Analysis:
Hosmer hasn't had a day off since July 1, so the timing was right for a maintenance day with AL Cy Young candidate and southpaw Dallas Keuchel on the mound for the opposing Astros. Kendrys Morales will man first base in his stead, while Salvador Perez serves as the designated hitter.
