Seiya Suzuki Out of Lineup on Saturday
Seiya Suzuki is sitting on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. Willi Castro will play right field and hit eighth in a meeting with right-hander Zack Littell, while Moises Ballesteros will serve as the DH and bat cleanup. Suzuki returned Wednesday after missing a week with bronchitis, but he has gone just 1-for-8 with two walks and a strikeout in three games since then. While the 31-year-old has posted career highs in home runs (27) and RBI (91) this season, he has only gone deep twice and driven in 14 runs in 51 games since the mid-July All-Star break. Suzuki has hit .243/.325/.458 with 69 runs and five steals in 143 games and 622 trips to the plate this season.
