Playing time drying up
Jung is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.
Analysis
Jung has now been absent from the Tigers' lineup for seven of the last 10 games. The rookie has just a .675 OPS and 31.5 percent strikeout rate in his first 31 big-league contests. Zach McKinstry is handling third base Tuesday as manager A.J. Hinch continues to mix and match at the hot corner.

Getting breather versus LHP
Jung isn't in Detroit's lineup for Saturday's game against Baltimore, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Analysis
The lefty-hitting Jung will get a chance to rest Saturday as the Tigers prepare to face the lefty-throwing Cade Povich. Matt Vierling will start at the hot corner in Jung's stead, opening up right field for Wenceel Perez.

Taking seat Friday
Jung is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Orioles.
Analysis
It's the fourth time Jung has been on the bench in the past five games, though two of those contests came against left-handed pitchers. The 23-year-old hasn't helped himself with Detroit making a push for a playoff spot, as he has a .222/.364/.259 slash line through 15 games in September.
