Davis is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis will head to the bench for the second time in three days after going 0-for-12 with five strikeouts in his last three starts. Josh Palacios will pick up the start in right field in Davis' stead, but the 23-year-old rookie doesn't appear in imminent danger of losing out on a near-everyday role in the Pittsburgh outfield.

Davis isn't starting Saturday versus Pittsburgh, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis is 0-for-10 across his last three games, so he'll take a day to recollect himself Saturday. Josh Palacios (illness) will return to take Davis' place in right field and bat fifth.

Davis is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Josh Palacios has been getting run atop the batting order and will receive another start in the leadoff spot Tuesday, this time at Davis' expense in right field. This snaps a streak of six consecutive starts for Davis, who sits with a .672 OPS, five homers and three steals through 41 career games.

Davis went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Friday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Davis entered the game having collected only two hits across his last 38 at-bats, though he snapped that stretch with a two-run blast in the second inning. His .232 average is underwhelming, but Davis' underlying numbers suggest he hasn't been overmatched in the majors as he's struck out at only a 20.9 percent clip while maintaining a .152 ISO across 158 plate appearances. He should continue to start the majority of the team's games in right field, and he has fluctuated between batting fourth and fifth in the order of late.

Davis went 3-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Friday's 8-5 loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Davis made his presence felt despite the poor result for the Pirates, taking Shohei Ohtani deep in the fourth and sixth innings. He's the first player to homer twice in the same game off Ohtani, per MLB. Davis doubled his homer count for the season to four, and he's added 11 RBI, 16 runs scored, three stolen bases and a .295/.391/.463 slash line over his first 110 plate appearances. He continues to play regularly in right field despite coming up through the Pirates' system as a catcher.

Davis went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, a run scored and a steal in Sunday's loss against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Davis has two hits in each of his last three games since the All-Star break, going 6-for-11 (.545) in that stretch. The 23-year-old rookie is now slashing .280/.372/.402 with two homers, 13 runs scored, nine RBI and three stolen bases through his first 94 plate appearances while playing primarily in the outfield.

Davis went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Davis snapped a 17-game homerless stretch to blast his second career homer Saturday. Despite the lack of power, he has adjusted well to the big leagues by striking out at only a 21.3 percent rate while reaching base at a .360 clip. Davis is also locked into a prominent spot in the Pirates' order, hitting anywhere between first and fifth consistently for the last three weeks.

Davis is starting in right field and batting leadoff Friday versus the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the first career appearance at leadoff for Davis, though he could become a featured option there with the Pirates having to send both Andrew McCutchen (elbow) and Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) to the injured list Friday. Davis, 23, has slashed .270/.333/.365 with one home run and two stolen bases in 17 games since arriving in the majors June 19.

Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
For the first time since getting a call-up to the majors June 19, Davis will head to the bench. He's started in right field or at designated hitter in each of his first 12 games with the Pirates, slashing .311/.380/.422 with a home run, two stolen bases, six RBI and six runs.

Davis went 2-for-4 with two RBI, a run scored and a stolen base Wednesday against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Davis extended his hitting streak to six games and tallied his third multi-hit game in that span. He's had an encouraging start to his big-league career and has shown the ability to contribute in multiple areas by tallying three extra-base hits and two stolen bases across 37 plate appearances. Davis' 27 percent strikeout is a bit inflated, but the Pirates have shown faith in one of their top young prospects as he's hit third in the lineup in consecutive contests.
