Sitting again Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.
Multi-hit effort in loss Bauers went 2-for-4 with an RBI single in a loss to the Rangers on Sunday.
Impact Bauers' pair of singles marked his first hits since July 24, a game which also featured a two-hit effort. The 25-year-old continues to see a relatively steady dose of action against right-handed pitching, but his .219/.285/.283 slash line largely keeps him a fantasy afterthought with the exception of very deep formats.

Sits again Wednesday Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.
Impact The lefty-hitting Bauers will take a seat against southpaw Austin Gomber, one day after he was on the bench versus a righty (German Marquez).

Back in action Bauers (undisclosed) will start in left field and bat ninth Sunday against the Angels.
Impact Bauers checks back into the lineup after he was scratched ahead of Saturday's loss due to an unspecified issue. With Jake Fraley landing on the COVID-19 injured list earlier Sunday after testing positive for the virus, Bauers should have a clearer path to playing time in the outfield moving forward, at least versus right-handed pitching.
