Duvall is out of the lineup against the Cubs on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall receives a rare day off after 21 straight starts, slashing .224/.287/.529 with seven home runs and 16 RBI during that span. In his place, Scooter Gennett moves to left while Jose Peraza draws a start at second base.

Duvall went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's loss to the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall homered for the second consecutive contest, giving him 60 long balls since the start of last season. The soon-to-be 29-year-old took a while to get regular playing time in the majors, but always showed the capability to produce elite power at every level. Duvall's inclusion in the trade has already more than justified Cincinnati's 2015 decision to deal starter Mike Leake to the Giants.

Duvall went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Saturday's loss to Miami.

EDGE Analysis

This was the third homer in four games for Duvall, so the slugger appears to be kick-starting another power outburst. He's had a number of real droughts this season and inconsistency is part in parcel to his game. Duvall still sports a rock-solid .269/.321/.535 slash line with 23 homers, 71 RBI, five stolen bases and 52 runs for the campaign.

Duvall is not in the lineup Monday against the Indians.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall started the past 14 games, but he's batting just .214 with 20 strikeouts in that span. He'll hit the bench for a night off, allowing Patrick Kivlehan to log a start in left field for the evening.

Duvall went 2-for-5 with a double, a homer and two RBI Thursday in Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall drove in Scooter Gennett with a two-out double in the fifth then launched his 20th long ball of the season to lead off the eighth. The 28-year-old slugger is well on his way to surpassing last season's breakout total of 33 home runs, and already sits just six shy of his 31 doubles from that campaign. Owners have to be thrilled with his .280/.325/.564 line three games before the All-Star break.

Duvall is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall has started the past 22 games for Cincinnati, so the Reds will give him a well-deserved night off. Scooter Gennett will man left field for the evening to replace him.

Duvall went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer, a walk and two runs Friday against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall smashed his 19th homer of the season to give the Reds a three-run lead in the fourth inning of a winning effort. The fourth-year veteran is having an excellent follow-up to his breakthrough 2016 campaign, as he's currently posting career-highs in each of the slash line categories, and he's been an elite fantasy option this season.

Duvall went 2-for-4 with a homer and two RBI against the Brewers on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

His RBI single in the bottom of the eighth made the difference in the game and lifted Duvall's batting average to .284, its highest point since April 18. A one-dimensional slugger last year, Duvall has refined his approach this season, trimming his strikeout rate a bit and hitting more line drives while maintaining his power output.

Duvall went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 8-6 win over the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

It's his 17th homer of the year but just his third in June, although Duvall has maintained his fantasy value by hitting .305 (25-for-82) on the month. The 28-year-old now sports a career-best .874 OPS and appears set to top last season's breakout performance.

Duvall went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

With 16 homers just over 40 percent of the way through the season, Duvall looks well on his way to match or surpass the 33 he posted during his breakout 2016 campaign. The fact that Duvall has improved on his already impressive slugging is perhaps less surprising than the fact that he's done so while maintaining a .275 batting average, good for fourth among the team's regulars. Duvall has been the beneficiary of a .312 BABIP that's more than 30 points higher than his career mark, but even with some regression baked in the rest of the way, he looks like he'll be less of a liability in batting average than most predicted heading into the season.
