Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs.

Marisnick […]

Cameron Maybin is Not in the Lineup Saturday

New York Yankees outfielder Cameron Maybin (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Oakland Athletics.
