Kelenic is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds. The left-handed-hitting Kelenic has picked up just two starts in eight games, even while Atlanta has opposed six right-handed starters during that span. After previously occupying the strong side of a platoon in left field, Kelenic appears to have ceded everyday duties at the position to Ramon Laureano. Kelenic's reduction in playing time comes while he's managed a lowly .176/.240/.294 slash line with a 30.7 percent strikeout rate dating back to Aug. 10.

Kelenic is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Cincinnati. The lefty-hitting Kelenic will begin the series opener on the bench as the Reds send southpaw Brandon Williamson to the hill. Ramon Laureano -- who has also been stealing some starts from Kelenic versus righties -- will patrol left field for Atlanta.

Kelenic is not in the lineup for Monday's game versus the Dodgers. Kelenic manned left field for Atlanta in both of the last two games, but Ramon Laureano will be in the lineup Monday versus righty Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Kelenic has now hit the bench four times over the last six contests, with three of his absences coming against right-handed pitchers.

Kelenic is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Dodgers. Despite having the platoon advantage against right-hander Landon Knack, Kelenic will take a seat for Friday's contest. In his place, Ramon Laureano will play left field and bat sixth. Kelenic is 5-for-19 (.263) with two homers and a stolen base in September.

Kelenic is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals. Kelenic appeared to recapture a strong-side platoon role in left field earlier this month, but he'll hit the bench against a right-hander (Jake Irvin) while the right-handed-hitting Ramon Laureano takes Kelenic's spot in the outfield. Through his first six games of September, Kelenic has gone 5-for-19 with two home runs, two walks, five RBI, four runs and one stolen base.
