Carlos Santana Scratched From Tuesday's Lineup
3 years agoKansas City Royals first baseman Carlos Santana has been scratched from the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Ryan O'Hearn will now be covering first base and batting cleanup. No reason has been given yet for why Santana has been removed from the lineup. The 36-year-old is hitting just .159 through 19 games this year. However, per usual, he's demonstrating elite plate discipline, ranking in the 97th percentile in both walk rate (18.2%) and strikeout rate (10.4%).
