Gattis is out of the lineup Monday against the Mariners, MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Astros bringing in Carlos Beltran and Brian McCann in the offseason, it appears Gattis won't have a direct route to everyday at-bats at either DH or catcher when the team is at full strength. However, since McCann and Beltran are both likely to require a couple days off per week, Gattis should still find a way into the lineup at least semi-regularly, which might be enough for him to make him a viable option in most leagues. He's slugged a combined 59 homers in his two seasons with the Astros, power numbers that are unmatched by any other catcher-eligible player.
