Gallo is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo's .209/.365/.361 slash line is as lopsided as ever, but it's much lighter in the slugging department than anyone would have expected. He'll sit against lefty Andrew Heaney on Tuesday, with David Dahl starting in right field.

EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old started the past 23 games and will head to the bench Friday for the first time since April 18 while in the midst of an 0-for-15 slump. According to Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News, Gallo may have tweaked something when he slipped on the warning track Thursday, though the team has yet to announce an injury. Willie Calhoun, Adolis Garcia and David Dahl will start from left to right in the outfield while Khris Davis serves as the designated hitter.
