Alvarez isn't in the lineup Wednesday against Detroit, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Alvarez has been dominant recently, going 7-for-16 with two home runs, three doubles, six runs, two RBI, six walks and two strikeouts over the last five games. He'll get a breather while Trey Mancini starts in left field and bats sixth.
