Barger is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Barger sat out Saturday's game due to hip discomfort before returning to the lineup Sunday, but he finds himself back on the bench for Tuesday's series opener versus the Guardians. It has yet to be reported that the 25-year-old has aggravated the injury, so it may simply be a rest day. Jonatan Clase is starting in right field and batting seventh Tuesday for Toronto.

Barger (hip) will start at third base and bat second Sunday against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's 7-1 win due to right hip discomfort, but the injury doesn't appear to be a serious one since he's back in the lineup a day later. Barger has carried a hot bat through 16 games in June with five doubles, four home runs, 10 RBI and 11 runs.
