Kendrick is out of the lineup Saturday against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

When Kendrick isn't playing up the middle or hitting for a high average, he brings essentially nothing to the table, and that is the position he finds himself in. His .200/.234/.211 slash line has likely led to him being cut in a variety of formats, and while his batting average should bounce back, there's no reason to expect him to hit for double-digit homers or steal double-digit bases the rest of the way. Carl Crawford will start in left field and hit eighth Saturday.
