Trout hits 300th homer, Angels rally to take 2 from Astros
SEPTEMBER 6, 2020 • Associated Press
Sitting Friday Upton will be on the bench Friday against the Angels, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Upton has started the majority of the Angels' games this year but doesn't have anything close to a true everyday role, as he's sat for 14 of the team's 39 contests thus far. He's hitting just .159/.235/.307 on the season, so the struggling Angels could turn to younger players more frequently in the future. One of those younger options, Franklin Barreto, starts in left field Friday.

Solo homer provides lone run Monday Upton went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in the 2-1 loss to the Mariners on Monday.
Impact Marco Gonzales tossed a complete game, with Upton's solo homer being the only blood the Halos drew off the southpaw. After a terrible beginning to his campaign, Upton has been more productive of late, going 5-for-16 with three extra-base hits and four RBI over his last four games.

Yankees beat Mets 2-1 to stop 7-game slide
AUGUST 29, 2020 • Associated Press
Racks up three hits Upton went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Friday's win over the Mariners.
Impact Upton recorded his first multi-hit game of the season, but 2020 has been a massive struggle for the veteran outfielder -- he had recorded just seven hits in 71 at-bats prior to this game. He's only hitting a meager .133, but perhaps this three-hit performance could be the confidence booster he needs going forward. He won't be much of a factor across most formats unless he finds a way to show more consistency at the plate, though.

Goes yard in loss Upton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 11-4 loss to the Astros.
Impact Upton went deep off Astros starter Framber Valdez in the fourth inning. It was the third homer of the year for Upton. The left fielder had appeared in just five of the Angels' last 13 games, and entered the contest in a 1-for-18 slump over that span. He's hitting just .103 with eight RBI and five runs scored in 20 games this season. Due to Upton's poor hitting, Brian Goodwin has seen most of the recent playing time in left field.

Báez homers twice, Cubs top Tigers 9-3 for 11,000th victory
AUGUST 25, 2020 • Associated Press
Slump continues Upton went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in Monday's win over San Francisco.
Impact Upton was in the lineup as designated hitter while Brian Goodwin -- who typically sits against southpaw starters -- started in left field and collected a pair of hits. Upton had not gotten into a game since Friday, when he struck out twice against the Dodgers. The 32-year-old has whiffed five times in his last seven at-bats, is mired in a 1-for-34 slump and is hitting a paltry .100 on the season. Given Goodwin's inclusion in the starting nine Monday and his .302 season average, Upton could be looking at sparse opportunities down the line if he is unable to turn things around soon.

Not starting Tuesday Upton is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Mariners, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Manager Joe Maddon announced earlier in the day that Upton and Brian Goodwin would be platooning in left field with top-prospect Jo Adell taking over in right, and Goodwin will receive the immediate start against Seattle righty Justin Dunn. Upton would fill the short side of the platoon based on left/right splits, which would put him in the lineup Wednesday against southpaw Marco Gonzales.
