Farmer will sit Saturday against Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Farmer hits the bench for the third time in the last six games, which may be related to the general soreness he was battling earlier in the week. He hasn't exactly earned everyday at-bats with his performance at the plate, however, as he's hitting just .217/.287/.333 on the year. Mike Freeman takes over at shortstop in his absence.

The shortstop figures to be available off the bench Wednesday against the Royals and seems likely to rejoin the starting nine Thursday in Milwaukee.
