Dezenzo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
For the first time since getting his first big-league call-up last Tuesday, Dezenzo will hit the bench. He had started at first base or designated hitter in each of the previous five contests, going 5-for-21 with a solo home run, a double and a walk. The Astros are expected to continue giving Dezenzo a look in a near-everyday role, but he'll need to keep hitting to build up some job security.
