Joyce grounded out in a pinch-hitting appearance and is batting .156 (5-for-32) since Aug. 9.

EDGE Analysis

The outfielder has walked 12 times in the last month, giving him a .400 OBP, but he has no home runs after hitting 12 homers earlier in the year. Oddly, the worse Joyce does for the remainder of September, the better the likelihood he re-signs with Pittsburgh in the offseason as he becomes an affordable option.
