EDGE Analysis
Vogt has made five straight starts behind the plate, but he'll give way to backup Bruce Maxwell for the Sunday afternoon contest. The primary backstop had a rough night at the plate Saturday, going 0-for-4 with a strikeout. He'll hit the reset button before returning to action Monday.

Vogt was 2-for-5 Friday night against the White, Sox, including his tenth homer.
EDGE Analysis
While Vogt has not matched his power stats of 2015, he has provided at solid .272 batting average at a position that has seen very few guys produce at solid levels. While the average has been good, Vogt's counting categories have not been strong with only 42 runs and 36 RBI on the season. Vogt has worn down and as a result struggled offensively in the second half the last two seasons and will look to stop that trend with a strong finish in 2016.

Vogt is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
With Vogt having started three games in a row behind the plate and a left-hander (Wade LeBlanc) on the hill for the opposition, it makes sense for the Athletics to give him a day off. Bruce Maxwell replaces Vogt behind the plate.

Vogt is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Bruce Maxwell will step in behind the plate as Vogt sits after catching four straight games. The power numbers are down for Vogt this year, as are the walks, but Vogt is striking out at just a 14.3 percent clip and remains a quality option at the paper thin catcher position.
