Altuve is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Altuve will exit the lineup for just the sixth time all season in what appears to be a mental day off after he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Orioles. Shay Whitcomb will spell Altuve at second base while Alex Bregman climbs up from the two-hole to fill Altuve's usual spot atop the lineup.
