Beaty is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Beaty is on the bench for the third straight game, with two of those absences having come against right-handed starting pitchers. Beaty had a brief run as a strong-side platoon player at first base to close out August but the Royals appear to have instead opted for a committee approach to the position.

Beaty is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Beaty will head to the bench Sunday with southpaw Chris Sale on the hill for Boston. While Beaty sits, the Royals will hand a start at first base to Matt Duffy in the series finale.

Beaty is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Beaty started the past five games but will take a seat Tuesday after he went 3-for-12 with two walks and two runs during that stretch. Salvador Perez will rest his legs at first base while Freddy Fermin steps in behind the plate.

Beaty will start at first base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Beaty may continue to sit regularly versus left-handed pitching, but the Royals appear to be giving him a look in an everyday role at first base or designated hitter against righties. He'll start for the fourth game in a row after going 3-for-8 with a walk and two runs over the previous three contests.

Beaty is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Beaty had started each of the last three games at first base and went 3-for-13 with two doubles, two runs and one RBI in those contests, but his opportunities will likely become more limited moving forward after Salvador Perez (hand) returned from a one-game absence Tuesday. Perez is expected to see consistent playing time at first base for the foreseeable future to open up starts behind the plate for the hot-hitting Freddy Fermin.

Beaty (concussion) was reinstated from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Beaty landed on the shelf June 23 after suffering a concussion, and he'll rejoin the Royals on Tuesday after a six-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha. The 30-year-old has appeared in just seven big-league games this season and should fill a bench role now that he's healthy.

EDGE Analysis
