Francoeur is not in the lineup Tuesday against San Diego.

EDGE Analysis

Francoeur will take a seat with right-hander Colin Rea on the mound in favor of Mallex Smith, who will play left field and bat ninth in the lineup. The 32-year-old Francoeur has played well thus far into the season, hitting .286 with 16 RBI in 126 at-bats. He will likely be back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game.
