Morrison is not in the starting lineup Monday against Jays left-hander J.A. Happ, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Rays will continue to use a strict platoon at first base, leaving Steve Pearce at the position over Morrison when the opposing team has a left-handed starter on the mound.

Morrison is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the A's.

EDGE Analysis

Morrison has totaled just eight at-bats against southpaws all season, so it should come as little surprise that he will be held out with left-hander Rich Hill on the bump for the A's. Steve Pearce will get the start at first base in Morrison's place.

Morrison is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Mariners, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrison continues to struggle at the plate, hitting just .122, and will receive another day off Tuesday against the left-handed Wade Miley. Steve Pearce will take over at first base in his place and bat clean up.

Morrison is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Dodgers, Eric Stephen of SB Nation reports.

EDGE Analysis

Similarly to Tuesday's matchup, Morrison and his .094 batting average will head to the bench with left-hander Alex Wood slated to pitch for Los Angeles. Steve Pearce will fill in for him at first base.

Morrison is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers, Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrison, who is struggling mightily to the tune of a dismal .094 average on the season, will once again take a seat with the left-handed Scott Kazmir taking the mound. Steve Pearce will draw the start at first base in his stead and bat cleanup.

Morrison is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Steve Pearce will man first base and bat cleanup with a left-hander in J.A. Happ toeing the rubber for Toronto. Morrison has logged just six at-bats against southpaws this season, and his exposure to lefties will remain limited with manager Kevin Cash deploying a strict platoon at the position.

Morrison went 1-for-2 with a walk in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't exactly an offensive explosion, but by Morrison's 2016 standards, it came close. The struggling infielder was able to get his batting average into triple figures for the first time all season, underscoring the extent of his struggles. The 28-year-old has at least begun to show signs of emerging from his season-long malaise, having now hit safely in four straight games, with two doubles during that span. Morrison continues searching for his first homer and RBI of the season, and has whiffed 24 times over just 56 at-bats. He hit out of the six-hole on Wednesday for the second straight game, and is likely to remain in the latter half of the order for the time being given his lack of production to date.

Morrison is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Orioles, Bill Chastain of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrison has gotten off to a dismal start to the season, as he currently has a .080 average, and has sat three of the last five games, but he appears to still have a grip on a starting role. He'll slide down to sixth in the lineup Tuesday and handle the first base duties.

Morrison is not in the lineup Monday against the Orioles, Steve Carney of 620 WDAE reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morrison will sit out his third game in five days after striking out three times Sunday against the Yankees and beginning the season with a dreadful .080 batting average. Steve Pearce will man first base in his stead.

Morrison is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees, Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

This comes as little surprise, as the Rays are facing a lefty in CC Sabathia and Morrison has made just one start against a lefty this season. Steve Pearce will man first base and bat sixth.
