Will Benson Gets Rest Day On Friday
11 months agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Will Benson is absent from the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Atlanta Braves. This appears to be nothing more than a routine day off for the left-handed slugger. Benson has been hot at the plate since the start of June. He's slashing .333/.492/.533 with two homers and five RBI in 23 games. Jake Fraley will fill in at right field and bat fifth versus right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver on Friday. The expectation is that Benson will return to the lineup after this game.
