Joseph is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Giants. Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Jurickson Profar will start at second base and bat eighth against left-hander Madison Bumgarner. Joseph is hitless in his last 13 plate appearances and now owns a .192/.185/.308 slash line in seven games since he was promoted to the majors Aug. 14. The 30-year-old infielder has yet to start a game against a lefty.
