Brenton Doyle Gets the Day Off Amid Hitless Start to Season
Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Leadoff hitter Jake McCarthy will patrol center field in his absence. Doyle has been off to a woeful start offensively, going 0-for-11 with one walk, one stolen base, and two strikeouts. His .168 xBA suggests he's been only a little unlucky. Doyle has always been someone whose glove offers more value than his bat, but a three-game hitless streak is still concerning. He'll get the day off Monday to reset as the Rockies face off against Blue Jays right-handed pitcher Cody Ponce. If this is just a day off rather than a pure benching, he should get back into the lineup on Tuesday against veteran righty Max Scherzer.
