Adduci is out of the lineup Sunday against the Astros,

EDGE Analysis

Adduci has occupied the strong side of a platoon for much of the second half, supplying a .306/.325/.432 slash line over that stretch. While that amounts to solid production, the rebuilding Tigers may not be keen on continuing to give a 33-year-old journeyman steady at-bats throughout September. With younger prospects like Dawel Lugo and Ronny Rodriguez beginning to pick up regular starts in the middle infield, it appears Adduci could be phased out at first base in favor of utility man Niko Goodrum.

Adduci is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Adduci went 2-for-4 with two singles and two strikeouts Saturday in the Tigers' loss to the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

The first baseman got his customary start against a right-hander, this time Masahiro Tanaka, and recorded two singles. Adduci might be the quietest .293 hitter in the majors right now, and his serviceable .753 OPS has provided surprising offense for this rebuilding Tigers club. The 33-year-old journeyman will remain at least a top-side platoon player for the rest of the season, which might offer value in deep mixed fantasy games who depend on such matchups.
