Batting slide continues Evans went 0-for-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Padres.

Impact He's in a 4-for-37 slump since April 22 with no extra-base hits. The 28-year-old's playing time will likely be further cut into when Ke'Bryan Hayes returns, something that could happen in the next week. Evans has totaled more plate appearances (109) in 2021 than his prior three seasons (106) combined, as his role continues to develop. Fantasy managers might consider keeping Evans on the bench until he regains his stroke.

Heads to bench Evans is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cardinals, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Impact Evans hits the bench after starting 11 straight contests. He started the season hot, posting a 1.207 OPS in his first nine games, but he's since recorded a .442 OPS over his last 13 contests. Ka'ai Tom will start in left field Friday.

Hitless once again Evans went 0-for-3 with a walk in Saturday's 6-2 victory against Minnesota.

Impact He's 4-for-37 with a 4:13 BB:K since April 13. The team has penciled him in as an everyday super-utility player, but his bat has cooled since a red-hot start. Unless his slump continues, Evans figures to see steady action, especially with the uncertainty surrounding Ke'Bryan Hayes (wrist).
