Toles is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

His absence against an opposing lefty starter (Clayton Richard) comes as no surprise, as the expectation was always that Toles and Franklin Gutierrez would platoon in left field to open the year. Toles led off against right-hander Jhoulys Chacin on Opening Day, going 2-for-5 with a run scored. He figures to stick in the top spot in the order against righties for the time being with Logan Forsythe in the five-hole.
