Gattis is not in the lineup against the Angels on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

For the second straight game, Gattis will occupy a seat on the bench. Yulieski Gurriel will man the DH spot while Marwin Gonzalez gets a start at first base.

Gattis is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis is off to a sluggish start to the season, hitting just .205/.293/.315 through 82 plate appearances, so he'll get the day off to clear his head after starting seven of the past eight games. George Springer will slide to DH in his place, opening up a spot in center field for Derek Fisher to pick up a start.

Gattis went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and two RBI in Sunday's 7-1 win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

It took 21 games for Gattis to hit his first homer. The 31-year-old has averaged homer every 5.2 games during his career, so one could say Gattis was due. He's been dropped in the batting order to the lower third and is hitting .217 with one homer and eight RBI over 69 at-bats. As the team's primary designated hitter, Gattis should get 500 plate appearances and the home run potential that comes with that, but he's under-performing early in 2018.

Gattis will serve as designated hitter and bat ninth against the White Sox on Saturday, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis was out of the starting lineup Friday, but replaced Brian McCann behind the plate to catch the final two innings of the 10-0 blowout, striking out in his only at-bat. The 31-year-old has yet to find his rhythm this season, and is slashing .213/.304/.295 with 19 strikeouts in 61 at-bats.

Gattis is not in the lineup against the White sox on Friday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis will get a standard day off following four straight starts. In his place, George Spring will man the designated hitting duties and Derek Fisher will get a start in center field.

Gattis was back in the starting lineup Wednesday after getting two days off. He went 2-for-5 with a run scored in two RBI in a 9-8 loss to the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

A 1-for-14 stretch bought Gattis a couple of days off before Wednesday's start, his second multi-hit game of the season. It's been a slow start for Gattis, who can't lean on the cold weather as an excuse. Wednesday's game in Minnesota has been his lone cold-weather start. The team gets a day off Thursday and will kick off a series at home against the Rangers on Friday.

Gattis is out of the lineup for the second day in a row Tuesday against the Twins, Brandon Warne of The Athletic Minnesota reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jose Altuve will get a semi-rest day and take Gattis' typical designated hitter spot, just as George Springer got the day before. There haven't been any reports of a Gattis injury, so it's likely that the Astros simply wanted to rest the legs of two of their star players.

Gattis is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis will get the day off after starting each of the previous three games for the Astros and going just 1-for-10 over that stretch. George Spring will start at DH in his place, pushing Marwin Gonzalez to the outfield and opening up a spot for J.D. Davis to start at first base.

Gattis is not in the lineup against the Orioles on Wednesday, Hunter Atkins of The Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis will receive a day off after starting the club's first six games of the season, going 6-for-23 with four doubles and three RBI out of the DH spot. In his place, George Springer will take on the designated hitting duties while Derek Fisher gets another start in the outfield.

Gattis went 3-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Gattis, who's batting sixth in the order behind some prominent hitters, has left several men on base through the first three games. But the six-hole hitter broke out in a big way in Game 4, knocking in his first runs of the season.
