Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Lopez has now sat three times in four games, with all of his absences coming against left-handed starting pitchers. The Royals will turn to Michael Massey at second base and Matt Duffy at third base to complement the team's everyday starters, Bobby Witt and Vinnie Pasquantino, in the infield.
