Moustakas will sit against lefty Jon Lester and the Cardinals on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The Reds have stuck to their plan of platooning Moustakas and Eugenio Suarez at the hot corner, as Moustakas hasn't made a single start against a southpaw since returning from a heel injury in early August. Suarez starts at the position Friday, but Moustakas should return to the lineup against righty Miles Mikolas on Saturday.
