Taylor is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has gone just 3-of-32 (.094) at the plate since the start of June, so he will be held out for the second time in four days. Lorenzo Cain will start in center field in Taylor's place.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Though Taylor is on the bench Wednesday, he may have supplanted Lorenzo Cain as the Brewers' top center fielder by this point. Taylor was in the lineup for each of the last 17 games, and Cain was excluded from the starting nine for the past two contests, when the Brewers faced one right-hander (Mike Clevinger) and one left-hander (Ranger Suarez). Taylor holds a 243-point edge in OPS over Cain this season, and despite the latter's more extensive track record at the big-league level, the discrepancy in the two players' performances may be too great for manager Craig Counsell to ignore.

Taylor went 2-for-7 with two home runs, three RBI, three runs scored and a walk in both games of Monday's doubleheader versus the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor connected for a two-run blast in the first game, pulling the Brewers level at 4-4. He added a solo shot in the nightcap, which served as an insurance run in the 3-1 win. The outfielder has collected all five of his homers this year in his last 11 contests. For the season, the 28-year-old sports a .252/.301/.472 slash line with 22 RBI, 13 runs scored, a stolen base, seven doubles and a triple in 36 games.

Taylor went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor's big blast to left field in the sixth inning broke a 1-1 tie and proved to be the difference-making hit as the Brewers snapped the Padres' five-game winning streak. With Hunter Renfroe heading to the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a low-grade hamstring strain that will likely keep him out for around two weeks, Taylor should have a clear path to a near-everyday role in the short term in either the outfield or at designated hitter.

Taylor is starting in right field and batting cleanup Tuesday against San Diego.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old already started four of the past five games in center field over Lorenzo Cain, but he's now likely to operate as Milwaukee's primary right fielder after Hunter Renfroe (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday. Taylor got off to a slow start this season, but he's come alive of late and is 7-for-16 with two home runs, seven RBI and three runs over his past four appearances.

Taylor went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's victory over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor picked up his second multi-hit game of the season Wednesday, and he followed that up by knocking in a season-high three runs in Friday's contest. While Taylor has not been hitting all that much, he has been playing regularly, starting each of the Brewers' last six games.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor went 4-for-16 with a walk, a run and two RBI across the last four games, but he'll bow out of the lineup for the series finale with Jace Peterson getting a look in left field. While Andrew McCutchen (illness) is on the COVID-19 injured list, Taylor looks like he'll continue to serve as his primary replacement in the outfield or at designated hitter.

Taylor will start in center field and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor will remain in the starting nine for the third game in a row, with Andrew McCutchen's (illness) recent move to the COVID-19 injured list having opened up more playing time for him. In his two starts against Atlanta over the weekend, Taylor went a combined 2-for-7 with a walk and an RBI.

Taylor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's victory over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The long ball was the first of the season for Taylor, who despite hitting just .204 does have seven extra-base hits in 52 PA. Taylor is working in a reserve role, but with fellow outfielder Andrew McCutchen serving primarily as the designated hitter, he has made 13 starts in the outfield through 26 games.

Taylor will start in right field and bat sixth in Tuesday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
With Hunter Renfroe getting a maintenance day, Taylor will enter the starting nine for only the third time in eight games. Taylor has hit a double in each of his last three starts, but he has yet to leave the yard over his 30 plate appearances on the season.
