Beltran (back) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Beltran is set to miss his fourth consecutive game as he continues to deal with neck and back soreness. The issue isn't thought to be overly serious, and the Astros remain hopeful Beltran will be able to return to the starting nine before Wednesday's series finale. In the meantime, Yulieski Gurriel will serve as DH in his absence.
