Straw is out of the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Rookie Alex Call will pick up his first career MLB start as a replacement in center field for Straw, who is resting after he was included in the lineup in each of the Guardians' previous seven contests. Straw drew a walk and came around to score in the Guardians' 4-1 win in Game 1, but an 0-for-2 showing dropped his season average to .210.

Straw went 2-for-4 with three RBI in Monday's 8-4 win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Straw hasn't had the opportunity to generate many RBI from either the top or the bottom of the order his year. This was just his second game all season with multiple RBI, a feat he accomplished with a two-run single in the first inning and an RBI single in the fifth. The outfielder has hit safely in six straight games, going 10-for-23 (.435) with a double and a run scored in that span. For the season, he's slashing only .211/.301/.262 with 13 RBI, 45 runs scored and 13 stolen bases in 82 contests.

Straw went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Straw has started to find his swing again, going 7-for-16 (.438) across his last four games. With the Guardians in control of this contest, he exited for pinch runner Oscar Mercado in the sixth inning. After spending a week below the Mendoza Line, Straw's batting average is up to .206 with Saturday's three-hit effort. He's added 45 runs scored, 13 stolen bases, 10 RBI, 13 doubles and a triple in 80 contests. The speedy outfielder is still getting on base too infrequently to make consistent use of his best tool.

Straw is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Straw has not lost much playing time despite being mired in an extended slump, but he will not start both games on Monday's schedule. Oscar Mercado will start in center field in Straw's place.

Straw went 0-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in a 13-4 loss to the Yankees in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader.

EDGE Analysis

Straw didn't record a hit in either game of the twin bill, but he made a contribution in the matinee with an RBI on a fielder's choice. He hasn't had a multi-hit effort since June 22, and the lackluster hitting is likely to keep him at the bottom of the order until he can turn things around. He's slashing .196/.290/.247 with 12 steals, 10 RBI, 44 runs scored, 12 doubles and a triple through 74 contests, but the soft-hitting Straw has yet to swat a home run this year.

Straw went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a pair of walks in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Straw had a positive finish to an otherwise unimpressive June, a month in which he hit .149 (14-for-94). He added a pair of steals, three RBI, 10 runs scored and three doubles, but the outfielder's slump cost him the leadoff spot in the lineup. For the season, Straw is slashing .202/.298/.255 with no home runs, nine RBI, 44 runs scored and 11 stolen bases. Hitting at the bottom of the order drastically reduces his fantasy potential, especially considering he adds next to nothing in the power categories.

Straw is out of the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Straw will take a seat for the first time since June 16, ending a stretch of 11 consecutive starts. Richie Palacios will enter the Cleveland outfield in the nightcap as a replacement for Straw, who went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in the Guardians' 3-2 win in Game 1.

Straw will start in center field and bat ninth in Thursday's game against the Twins, Andre Knott of Bally Sports Ohio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Straw's inclusion at the bottom of the order confirms that he's lost hold of the leadoff gig against both left- and right-handed pitching. After ceding leadoff duties to the lefty-hitting Steven Kwan both of the past two days when the Guardians opposed right-handed starters (Joe Ryan and Sonny Gray), Straw will give way to the righty-hitting Owen Miller atop the lineup Thursday against Twins southpaw Devin Smeltzer. The move down in the lineup comes while Straw has produced a lowly .143/.211/.171 slash line to go with two extra-base hits (both doubles), two stolen bases, eight runs and one RBI over his first 19 games of June.

Straw is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

The slumping Straw will sit for the second time in five games while Steven Kwan shifts over to center field and Richie Palacios enters the lineup in left. Through 13 games in June, Straw has slashed .146/.196/.146 with two stolen bases, six runs and one RBI.

Straw is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the A's.

EDGE Analysis

Straw went 3-for-28 (.107) over his last seven games, so he will get a day off to clear his head. Steven Kwan will start in center field in Straw's place.
