Gattis is not in the lineup against the Dodgers on Friday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis will take a seat on the bench since the Astros won't have the services of a designated hitter during their three-game set in Los Angeles. Since Gattis has only logged one start all year outside of the DH spot -- he caught against the White Sox in April -- don't expect to see him utilized outside of a pinch-hitting role this weekend.
