EDGE Analysis
After starting each of Toronto's last nine games, Travis will have the night off as Darwin Barney starts at second base. Travis, who's hitting .353/.405/.471 since the All-Star break, will likely return to the lineup for Saturday's contest against Baltimore.

Travis went 1-for-4 Tuesday, but it was a 12th inning walk that allowed him to score the game-winning run on a walk-off wild pitch from Padres reliever Paul Clemens.
EDGE Analysis
Travis' 12th inning walk was the result of a marathon 14-pitch at-bat against Carlos Villanueva. After Clemens entered the game, he walked Jose Bautista, and allowed an RBI fielder's choice to Josh Donaldson that moved Travis over to third, setting up the walk-off wild pitch, which didn't technically count as a steal for Travis. Travis has come on strong of late, batting .286 on the season and .347 in the last 30 days. Average is his primary contribution though, as he has just three steals and six home runs in 2016.

Travis is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Oakland, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet reports.

After beginning the season on the DL with a shoulder injury, Travis slashed .264/.304/.439 in 158 at-bats before the All-Star Break.
EDGE Analysis
The second baseman didn't join the team until May 25, but still managed to notch 21 RBI while crossing the plate 21 times, too. Travis has displayed a bit more power than we saw during his rookie campaign a year ago, having already launched six home runs after hitting just eight in 238 at-bats during 2015. The 25-year-old managed to reach base in all but seven of the 38 games he played in, and is likely to assume the leadoff role in the coming weeks. Manager John Gibbons has stated that he wants Travis atop the lineup, but would wait until Travis seemed comfortable at the plate after missing most of the first half rehabbing from off-season surgery.

Travis is out of the lineup Sunday against the Indians, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Travis had been scheduled to sit out Friday, but he ended up replacing Edwin Encarnacion as a pinch-hitter and would log six more at-bats over the course of the game before the Blue Jays ultimately lost in 19 innings. Barring another lengthy game Sunday, Travis should be able to enjoy a true off day. Darwin Barney will spell him at the keystone.
