Schoop is not in the lineup Saturday against the Yankees, Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com reports. Schoop homered in three consecutive games earlier this month, but he's recorded just one hit in his last seven starts (28 at-bats), so manager Buck Showalter will give the 22-year-old a day to sit back and observe. Ryan Flaherty will man second base and bat eighth against right-hander Shane Greene.

Schoop went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double and three RBIs in Wednesday's win over the Reds. Schoop homered for the second game in a row and he does not have a strikeout in nine September at-bats. He has been a below-average hitter this season, but the hope is he can take a step forward in 2015.

Schoop hit his 11th homer of the season Wednesday night off of Yankees reliever Dellin Betances, tying the game in the eighth inning. It's been a season of growing pains for Schoop, who entered Wednesday's play with just 10 walks against 82 strikeouts in 329 at-bats. But let's keep in mind that he is just 22 years old while taking over the majority of the playing time at second base on a potentially playoff-bound team. His minor league numbers suggest that there's improvement on the horizon in his career.

Jonathan Schoop went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win over the Angels. The blast was Schoop's eighth of the year and put him up to 26 RBI. Despite the homer, the second baseman is batting just .220/.256/.338 this season and doesn't merit serious fantasy consideration.

Jonathan Schoop hit a solo home run and drove in two runs in Sunday's win over the Yankees. Schoop connected on a Masahiro Tanaka pitch for his sixth homer of the season. He added another RBI with an RBI groundout. The infielder has some pop but is hitting just .222/.270/.347 and can be disregarded outside of deep AL-only leagues.

Jonathan Schoop went 3-for-5 with a pair of solo homers Monday against the Brewers. It was the first multi-homer game of his young career. With a 38/4 K/BB ratio through 43 games, Schoop's plate discipline is a work in progress, but he has some pop in his bat. He's still just 22, so there's time for him to figure it out.
