Lux is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

With a left-hander (Matthew Liberatore) on the hill for St. Louis, the left-handed-hitting Lux will head to the bench after he had started in each of the Reds' previous eight games. Miguel Andujar will serve as Cincinnati's designated hitter in Lux's stead.

Lux went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Monday's 4-1 win over the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Lux had gone 37 games without a homer, picking up just six doubles in that span. He also batted .304 during the power drought. The 27-year-old is up to five homers, 47 RBI, 39 runs scored and a stolen base while slashing .281/.359/.386 over 395 plate appearances. He continues to see steady playing time in a strong-side platoon role, mainly between second base and left field.

Lux is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Lux went 2-for-6 with a run and two RBI in the first two games of the series, starting once in left field and once at second base, but he'll head to the bench against southpaw Jose Quintana. The Reds will go with Miguel Andujar in left and Santiago Espinal at the keystone.

Lux went 2-for-4 with two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 10-8 loss to the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Lux was active early, delivering RBI singles in the first and second innings. The 27-year-old has hit .412 with five multi-hit efforts in 10 August games, though he entered Friday with just one RBI for the month. On the season, he's slashing .282/.362/.381 with four home runs, 45 RBI, 38 runs scored and one steal across 387 plate appearances.

Lux is no longer in Cincinnati's starting lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lux had originally been penciled in to start in left field and bat fifth, but his spot in the lineup and in the field has been handed to Miguel Andujar. The change doesn't seem to be injury-related; rather, Atlanta has scratched original starting pitcher Spencer Strider after a lengthy weather delay and is now starting southpaw Austin Cox. As a result, the lefty-hitting Lux will defer to the righty-hitting Andujar.

Lux isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Lux will sit down for Thursday's series opener after going 2-for-10 with three walks, an RBI and two runs scored during Cincinnati's three-game set against the Dodgers. Jake Fraley, Will Benson and Noelvi Marte will start across the outfield for the Reds while Austin Hays serves as the DH.

Lux went 4-for-4 with an RBI single during Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Lux singled in all four of his at-bats Tuesday, and he delivered Cincinnati's only run of the game by plating Elly De La Cruz in the fourth inning. The performance marked Lux's second four-hit game of the season and the third of his career. In his last six games, Lux is 12-for-23 (.522) with a double and three RBI.

Lux is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

With southpaw Austin Gomber on the mound for Colorado, the left-handed-hitting Lux will take a seat after he started in each of the Reds' last seven games. Lux will give up his spot in the lineup to Santiago Espinal, who starts at third base while Noelvi Marte serves as the Reds' designated hitter.

Lux is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees are sending a lefty (Max Fried) to the hill for the second day in a row, so the left-handed-hitting Lux will once again take a seat. With Lux on the bench, Santiago Espinal will get the nod at third base and will bat ninth.

Lux went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 12-5 loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

The Twins raced out to a 7-2 lead by the third inning, but Lux responded with a two-run blast in the bottom of the inning. It was his third home run of the season and second during the month of June. He served as the designated hitter Thursday but has also received starts at left field (27), second base (nine) and third base (four). That versatility should serve Lux well when Cincinnati's injured players -- Austin Hays (foot), Noelvi Marte (oblique) and Jeimer Candelario (back) -- are ready to return.
