Martinez is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's tilt in Cincinnati.
Martinez is hitless in four games since coming off the injured list. With the Guardians being idle Thursday, Martinez will get extra time to regroup before likely returning to the lineup for the start of a homestand Friday versus the Diamondbacks. Chase DeLauter will patrol right field Wednesday, Travis Bazzana will be the designated hitter and Gabriel Arias will enter the lineup at second base.
