India is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

India has now started six of eight games since returning from the injured list, going 6-for-21 with two doubles over that time. The Royals will go with Adam Frazier at second base Wednesday in place of India.

India is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies.

The Royals reinstated India (wrist) from the 10-day injured list, and he's batting seventh as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

India hasn't seen the field since late August due to a wrist sprain, but he's back with the Royals for the second game of the series in Cleveland. It's been a disappointing campaign for the 29-year-old with a career-worst .666 OPS through 124 games, and he batted just .195 across 24 contests in August.

The Royals placed India on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a left wrist sprain.

EDGE Analysis

India had been held out of the lineup in both of the Royals' previous two games, but the nature of his absence wasn't known until the team revealed Monday that he was dealing with an injury. The severity of the wrist sprain isn't known, making it difficult to speculate how quickly India might be able to return from the IL. While India is on the shelf, Michael Massey and Adam Frazier should be in line to see the bulk of the starts at second base.

India is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

India will get his first day off since July 30 after slashing just .182/.308/.303 through the Royals' first nine games of August. With India on the bench, Adam Frazier will start at second base and Randal Grichuk will serve as the Royals' designated hitter.

India went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run an and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 7-3 win over Boston.

EDGE Analysis

India dropped down to the No. 7 spot in Kansas City's lineup to make way for the lefty-hitting Mike Yastrzemski in the leadoff spot, and the former responded by going deep for the sixth time this year. It's unclear if the move will stick against right-handed pitching going forward -- the Royals faced righty Dustin May on Wednesday -- but it's initially not the most encouraging sign for India's rest-of-season fantasy outlook. Since the start of June, India is also slashing a pedestrian .237/.318/.382 with five homers, 15 doubles, 22 RBI and zero stolen bases covering 234 plate appearances.
