Valencia is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Joey Rickard will take over in right field against right-hander Masahiro Tanaka. Valencia started both games of Monday's doubleheader, homering in the first game, and had started against the last three opposing right-handers prior to this absence. It seems safe to assume he will continue seeing regular playing time in the second half so long as he remains in Baltimore.

Valencia is not in Friday's lineup against the Twins, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia will head to the bench for the third time in the last four games, with Joey Rickard starting in right field and batting eighth. The 33-year-old Valencia is in the midst of an 0-for-16 slump and is without a hit in July.

Valencia is not in the lineup against Philadelphia on Wednesday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Orioles playing in a National League park, he will remain on the bench as Mark Trumbo gets another start in the outfield. Across 58 games this year, Valencia is hitting .275 with a .793 OPS. Look for him to continue seeing regular time in right field once the club returns to American League contests.

Valencia is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia was bumped from his typical third base position in late June by the return of Tim Beckham but had made six straight starts in right field before sitting for two games in a row. He's the victim of the lack of a designated hitter with Tuesday's game being played in Philadelphia, as Mark Trumbo will move out to play right field.

Valencia is out of the lineup Sunday against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia gets a breather after going hitless in 10 at-bats over his past three starts. Jace Peterson gets the nod in right field and will bat ninth against Angels right-hander Deck McGuire.

Valencia was 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia gave the Orioles an early lead with the second-inning home run, but was caught stealing and picked off his other two times on the basepaths. The 33-year-old has been a bright spot of the Baltimore offense in 2018, with a .287/.354/.467 slash line in 167 plate at-bats.

Valencia is not in the lineup Monday against the Mariners, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia is hitting a solid .304/.375/.435 over his last 20 games. Tim Beckham (groin) returns from the 60-day disabled list to start at third base in his place. Bekcham is likely to reclaim an everyday role at the position, but Valencia could continue to find himself in the lineup occasionally, especially with Chris Davis in the middle of a terrible season at first base.

Valencia is out of the lineup versus the Nationals on Thursday, Jon Meoli of the Baltimore Sun reports.

Valencia is out of the lineup Sunday against the Marlins, Eduardo A. Encina of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia will sit for the first time in six games after going 2-for-4 with an RBI in Saturday's 5-4 loss to boost his June batting average to .293. Jace Peterson will man the hot corner in Valencia's stead.

Valencia (illness) is back in the lineup Monday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Valencia had sat out Sunday with an illness, but the issue was apparently a minor one as he won't be missing any more time. The veteran third baseman is hitting a solid .286/.348/.484 through 40 games this season.
