Sitting against right-hander
DeLuca is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
Analiz
DeLuca will hit the bench for the third time in the Rays' last four matchups with right-handed starting pitchers. Though he should remain locked into a prominent spot in the lineup versus lefties, DeLuca looks like he's slipping into a short-side platoon role, with Victor Mesa getting more work against righties.

Analiz
