Lucroy is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles, Julian McWilliams of The Athletic Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy has started behind the plate in five consecutive games, so it's likely just an off day for the veteran. Bruce Maxwell steps in at catcher with right-hander Kevin Gausman taking the hill for Baltimore.

Lucroy went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two runs in a win over the Orioles on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran backstop was highly productive out of the bottom of the order, posting his fourth and fifth doubles over the last five games in the process. Lucroy has been wielding a red-hot bat over that span, going 8-for-17 while raising his batting average 45 points to .284.

Lucroy went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored Sunday against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy's most notable hit came in the third inning when he drove a Gerrit Cole offering down the line the opposite way for an RBI double. That was Lucroy's fifth extra-base hit of the season, and while his .267 average is respectable, he is slugging just .333. He has hit in the bottom third of the Athletics lineup for nearly the entire season, rendering his batting average mostly empty production.

Lucroy is not in the lineup against the Astros on Saturday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy will head to the bench Saturday as the Astros send Lance McCullers to the mound. Bruce Maxwell will start behind the plate and bat ninth for the Athletics, as Lucroy carries a.239/.316/.296 line in 71 plate appearances this season.

Lucroy is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Texas, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy will take a seat on the bench following a pair of starts behind the plate as Bruce Maxwell gets the nod for the series finale. Over 19 games this season, Lucroy is slashing .254/.333/.313 with four doubles and five RBI.

Lucroy is out of the lineup Sunday against the Red Sox, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy caught all nine innings of Sean Manaea's no-hit, 10-strikeout masterpiece Saturday, so he'll be gifted a well-deserved off day for the series finale. Bruce Maxwell checks in behind the plate Sunday, catching for Daniel Mengden.

Lucroy is out of the lineup against the White Sox on Wednesday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy will receive a standard day off for maintenance purposes as Bruce Maxwell draws the start for the series finale. During Tuesday's contest, Lucroy managed his second three-hit game in the past week, and drove in three runs, which brings his 2018 RBI total to four.

Lucroy went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a run in Oakland's 10-4 victory over the White Sox on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy is still without a home run on the season but he was able to bump his average up to .280 and on-base percentage to a solid .357 with this three-hit effort. He seems to be getting plenty of at-bats behind the plate for Oakland in the early going, but he'll have to start putting up more counting stats and, ideally, hitting for a bit more power before he can reclaim the status he once possessed as one of the game's elite-hitting catching options.

Lucroy is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Lucroy has been behind the plate for each of the last five games, including the first two contests of the series. The veteran backstop will give way to Bruce Maxwell on Sunday, but should be available off the bench if needed.

Lucroy went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs in a 16-6 win over the Dodgers on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

It was the first three-hit day of Lucroy's young Athletics tenure, and his second multi-hit effort of the season overall. The 31-year-old backstop has been steady at the plate thus far this season despite still being in search of his first home run, as he's hit safely in seven of 10 games and compiled a trio of two-baggers.
