Monasterio is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Monasterio started 21 straight games from Aug. 23 through Sept. 15, but he now finds himself out of the lineup for the second time in three days. Josh Donaldson will man the hot corner for a third straight game and could continue cutting into Monasterio's playing time.
Andruw Monasterio Day off Saturday
Monasterio will sit Saturday against the Nationals.
Analysis: Monasterio has settled into an everyday role in the second half, with Saturday's off day just his third since the break. His bat has been sub-par for an everyday corner infielder, however, as his .270/.344/.369 slash line is good for a modest 97 wRC+. Josh Donaldson will take over at the hot corner Saturday.
