Kiermaier (knee) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermiaer has been tending to a sore right knee since exiting Saturday's 12-3 win over the Orioles, but it's unclear if his second straight absence from the lineup is a result of the injury, or the fact that the Red Sox are bringing a lefty (Eduardo Rodriguez) to the hill. Manuel Margot will pick up the start in center field, and he or Brett Phillips will likely play the position against left-handed pitchers on most occasions for the rest of the season, regardless of Kiermaier's health.
