Rutledge is out of the lineup Wednesday against the A's, Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

In very limited at-bats, Rutledge has been very good, going 7-for-18 with three walks, three runs scored and three RBI. With David Ortiz coming back into the lineup, Rutledge is the odd-man out with Travis Shaw moving over to third base while Ortiz slides back in as the designated hitter.
