Utley is out of the lineup Thursday against the Marlins, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley will head to the bench with a lefty pitcher (Caleb Smith) on the mound for the second time in three days. Though he has regularly sat out against southpaws all season, Utley has seen steady playing time at the keystone since about mid-April due to his solid work against right-handed pitching. However, with Logan Forsythe having returned from the 10-day disabled list earlier this week and likely to step in as the Dodgers' preferred option at second base before long, Utley's starting opportunities could begin to dry up.

Utley is starting at the keystone and leading off Friday against righty Matt Harvey and the Reds, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley displaced Chris Taylor atop the lineup thanks to a .284/.384/.432 slash line against righties this season. He won't hit that high when he is in the lineup against lefties, but may continue to lead off against righties going forward as long as he continues to turn back the clock.

Utley is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley is out of the lineup Sunday against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Utley appears to be in a strict platoon, and Sunday will be no exception with left-hander Eric Lauer on the hill for the opposing Padres. It will be Enrique Hernandez who gets the start at second base this time around, and he'll also man the two-spot in the order.

Utley is not in the lineup against San Diego on Friday, MLB.com's Ken Gurnick reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley is out of the lineup Sunday against the Giants, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utley started both ends of a doubleheader Saturday, going 4-for-5 with three doubles, two RBI and four runs in the early game before being held without a hit in the nightcap. He'll get a breather in the series finale with lefty Ty Blach on the hill for San Francisco.

Utley went 4-for-5 with three doubles, a walk, four RBI and four runs scored in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Utley was a big part of the Dodgers' offensive outburst that helped the team score 15 runs and bring home the win. He now owns a .327 batting average and .938 OPS through 53 plate appearances this season, and should continue to see starts against right-handed hitters until Logan Forsythe (shoulder) is back in the fold.

Utley is not in the lineup Friday against the Giants, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

With southpaw Derek Holland taking the hill for San Francisco, Utley will retreat to the bench to avoid a lefty-on-lefty matchup. Austin Barnes will man the keystone in his stead.

Utley is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

With the left-handed Dillon Peters taking the mound for the Marlins on Tuesday night, the Dodgers will look to get another righty in their lineup. Utley will head to the bench while Enrique Hernandez starts at second base and hits third.

EDGE Analysis
