Panik is not in the lineup Thursday against the Diamondbacks, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Panik will give way to Donovan Solano at the keystone for Thursday's series opener with a left-hander in Alex Young starting for the Diamondbacks. Over his last 10 appearances, Panik is slashing .216/.333/.324 with two RBI and a 6:3 BB:K.

Panik is starting at second base and hitting eighth Wednesday against the Rockies, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Panik is hitting just .189 with a .554 OPS over his last 10 appearances, so he'll drop to the bottom third of the order while Brandon Belt gets a turn as the leadoff man.

Panik led off and went 1-for-3 with a walk in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Panik cooled down considerably in June (.206/.267/.235) after a solid month of May (.277/.373/.415). There hasn't been much competition for leadoff duties on an offensively-challenged Giants' squad this season, but with the likes of Mike Yastrzemski, Kevin Pillar and Alex Dickerson heating up at the plate, Panik could be in jeopardy of losing his leadoff spot if he continues to slump.

Panik is not starting Tuesday against lefty Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Panik has started occasionally against lefties this season but has generally found himself on the bench. He could remain there Wednesday with Rich Hill starting for the Dodgers. Donovan Solano starts in his absence.

Panik led off and went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 8-7 win over Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Panik set the table for the Giants, who have upset the Brewers by taking the first two games of their current series. The 28-year-old is slashing an uninspiring .247/.319/.341 with three home runs and three steals through 61 games. Despite his pedestrian on-base numbers, Panik continues to lead off due to the club's lack of superior alternatives.

Panik is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Padres, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Panik will retreat to the bench for Wednesday's series finale with a southpaw in Joey Lucchesi toeing the rubber for the Padres. In his stead, Donovan Solano is starting at the keystone and hitting leadoff.

Panik will sit Saturday against lefty Rich Hill and the Dodgers, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Panik went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 11-3 loss to the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Panik led the game off with his third long ball of the season, which turned out to be all the offense the Giants could muster against Trevor Richards. The 28-year-old continues to lead off against righties due in large part to upping his on-base percentage to a respectable .335 mark.

Panik went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Panik teamed up with Buster Posey to provide the only offense the Giants could muster against Luke Weaver. The second baseman continues to flourish in a leadoff role against righties, batting .291 with eight extra-base hits, nine RBI and 13 runs scored over his last 20 games.
