August 10, 2025 1:35 PM : Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Analysis: Though he'll head to the bench for Sunday's series finale, Taylor's playing time appears to be on the rise while his bat is hot. The veteran started the last four games, three in right field and one in left, going 6-for-15 with three solo home runs, one double, two walks and an additional run.
