Laureano is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Blue Jays.
The 30-year-old made seven straight starts in late August but is on the bench Friday for the third consecutive game against a right-handed starter. The lefty-hitting Jarred Kelenic will man left field Friday as Laureano appears to have shifted back into a small-side platoon role.
