Burleson is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Atlanta.
Burleson was hitless in the Cardinals' last series versus the Marlins and the left-handed batter is slashing only .183/.212/.237 versus southpaws this season, so he will take a seat as Atlanta sends lefty Martin Perez to the bump. It's the second straight time that Burleson has been absent from the lineup against a left-hander. Blaze Jordan will slide over to first base, and Jose Fermin will handle third base.
