Kendrick is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Braves, according to Andy McCullough of the LA Times.

EDGE Analysis

Kendrick has not been able to get anything going with the bat just yet, putting up a meager .415 OPS through eight games, so manager Dave Roberts decided to give him a mental break. Since his return to action Kendrick has primarily played left field, but it will be Enrique Hernandez getting the nod there Thursday.
