Galvis is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Galvis has picked it up a little bit, but he's sitting Sunday in favor of Jose Garcia with lefty Rich Hill toeing the rubber for Minnesota. The switch-hitting Galvis has a .664 OPS against left-handed pitching for his career and this platoon setup will likely continue on into the postseason.

Galvis went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 7-2 win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

He pulled a fastball from Jose Berrios just over the right-field wall for his seventh home run of the season. Galvis has taken a step back after his strong 2019 campaign and briefly lost the starting job at shortstop to Jose Garcia. However, Friday's start at short was Galvis' fourth in the Reds' last five games.

Galvis will sit Tuesday against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Galvis looked to be potentially reclaiming the starting shortstop role, getting the nod in the Reds' last two games. He'll sit in this one, with Kyle Farmer starting in his place.

Galvis will start at shortstop and will bat eighth Monday against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Galvis will be rewarded with a second straight start after he reached base during all four of his plate appearances in Sunday's 7-3 win over the White Sox. The veteran has turned in a modest .705 OPS on the season, but that's still 280 points better than rookie Jose Garcia, who has been serving as Cincinnati's top shortstop for much of September. With the 27-27 Reds still looking to lock down a playoff spot, manager David Bell could favor the more experienced Galvis over Garcia during the final week of the regular season.

Galvis will return to the bench for the first game of Monday's doubleheader versus the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

With Mike Moustakas ready to handle second base again after sitting out two games over the weekend due to a foot injury, Galvis will retreat to the bench following three consecutive starts at the keystone. He'll remain the top backup at second base, but Galvis' best path to playing time the rest of the way may come at shortstop, where struggling rookie Jose Garcia's hold on the starting gig could be loosening.

Galvis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old started the previous five games before taking a seat for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader, and he'll remain on the bench Sunday. Jose Garcia has taken over as the Reds' primary shortstop, leaving Galvis to operate in more of a reserve role between shortstop and the keystone.

Galvis is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Galvis started the past five games and went 0-for-3 during the matinee. Kyle Farmer will start at the keystone in the nightcap for the Reds.

Galvis remains in the Reds' starting lineup Wednesday against the Brewers despite the call-up of Jose Garcia, albeit at second base, batting sixth.

EDGE Analysis

With the Reds' juggling of their lineup Wednesday, Joey Votto is getting the day off, with Mike Moustakas moving over to first base. Long-term it's a good bet that Galvis will lose some playing time with Garcia's promotion.

Galvis is not in Monday's lineup against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

This is his first day off since Aug. 11. He is hitting .226/.273/.548 with three home runs and a 6:1 K:BB in 31 at-bats over those nine straight starts. Kyle Farmer will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

Galvis went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk during Thursday's loss to the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Galvis went deep with his fifth long ball of the season, this time off Adam Wainwright in the third inning. The 30-year-old is hitting .246/.329/.523 with 10 RBI and 10 runs scored so far this year.
