Jankowski (quad) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to his sore quad, and the setback will prevent him from playing a full nine innings for at least another day. He should have a chance to return to action Tuesday.

Jankowski started in right field and went 2-for-4 in a win over the Giants on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski returned to the lineup against a righty after retreating to the bench against the left-handed Madison Bumgarner on Thursday. The two-hit effort upped the speedster's batting average to .280 on the year, complemented by a team-high 12 steals in just 47 games. Wil Myers and Manuel Margot appear to have left and center field locked down respectively, leaving Jankowski on the strong side of a platoon in right field with Hunter Renfroe.

EDGE Analysis
Jankowski will take his usual seat on the bench with the Giants deploying a left-handed starter (Madison Bumgarner). Hunter Renfroe and Wil Myers will man the corner-outfield spots in this one.

Jankowski went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski recorded his second steal in as many games despite failing to record a hit in either contest. The speedster's playing time appeared to be in jeopardy, but Franchy Cordero's (elbow) setback may have altered that fate. Wil Myers' (oblique) impending return will still cloud up the outfield situation in San Diego, but the left-handed hitting Jankowski could find himself on the strong side of a platoon (or in a time share of sorts) with one or two of the remaining right-handed bats even after Myers is activated this weekend.

Jankowski led off and went 0-for-2 with a pair of walks and a stolen base in Sunday's 4-1 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski's production has tailed off since the calendar turned to June, as he is slashing just .220/.304/.280 in 12 starts this month. The speedy outfielder has been able to offset his poor hitting with three steals over that span, bringing him up to 11 stolen bags in just 161 plate appearances this season. Jankowski's strong play last month propelled him to become the Padres' primary leadoff hitter against right-handed starters, but his ill-timed slump could threaten his playing time once Wil Myers (oblique) and Franchy Cordero (forearm) complete their respective rehab assignments.

Jankowski is out of the lineup against Atlanta on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski will retreat to the bench following seven straight starts, including a pair of back-to-back hitless games against the Cardinals in the past two days. In his place, Hunter Renfroe will start in left field and bat fourth during the series opener.

Jankowski went 2-for-5 with an RBI in Saturday's win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Hitting from the leadoff spot, Jankowski collected his third multi-hit game of June with another solid effort Saturday. He's hitting .308 with a .376 OBP over 120 at-bats and remains a consistent presence at the top of the Padres' lineup with base-stealing upside.
