Austin Slater Sitting Against Righty On Monday
4 years agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder Austin Slater is heading to the bench on Monday as the team faces right-hander Dylan Bundy and the Los Angeles Angels. LaMonte Wade Jr. is leading off in the game while Steven Duggar joins Alex Dickerson and Mike Yastrzemski in the outfield. This will be the second consecutive time Slater is out of the lineup against a righty. He's slashing just .203/.257/.333 against righties this year, while he has a .264/.400/.566 slash line against lefties. Going forward, he'll likely start just about every game against lefties while he's more of a coin flip against righties.
