Padres' Gavin Sheets: On bench against lefty
Sheets is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
The Padres will send the left-handed-hitting Sheets to the bench while southpaw Shota Imanaga take the hill for the Cubs in the series opener. With Sheets taking a seat, Ty France will draw the start at first base and Miguel Andujar will serve as San Diego's designated hitter.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Homers in three-hit effort
Sheets went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Saturday's 15-3 loss to the Dodgers.
Sheets was the most productive Padre in this lopsided loss. This was his first multi-hit effort since his two-hit game versus the Rangers on June 19 -- he had gone 2-for-14 over the six games he played in between. The 30-year-old is now batting .234 with a .776 OPS, 13 homers, 35 RBI, 31 runs scored, 13 doubles and four stolen bases over 75 contests. Sheets got the start at first base for Ty France (wrist), but France's injury isn't expected to be a long-term concern. That will leave Sheets to mix in occasionally at first while getting most of his playing time between left field and designated hitter.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Homer, steal in loss
Sheets went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Friday's 9-7 loss to the Rangers.
Sheets opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before adding a solo blast in the eighth. The 30-year-old has gone deep twice in his past six games, though he's hitting just .195 through 15 June contests overall. On the season, he's slashing .230/.318/.456 with 12 homers, 32 RBI, 29 runs scored and four steals across 245 plate appearances.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Swats homer Saturday
Sheets went 1-for-5 with a solo home run against Baltimore in a 9-3 victory Saturday.
Sheets was one of five Padres to go deep in the win, and his seventh-inning solo shot off Albert Suarez gave the team a 7-2 lead. The veteran slugger has played a key role in the offense this season, ranking second in homers (11) and RBI (30). Sheets' defensive versatility has also been useful, as he's jumped around between first base and right field while also logging starts at DH.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Monster performance in win
Sheets went 3-for-3 with two homers, a double, two walks and four total RBI in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Mariners.
Sheets' torrid stretch at the plate reached another level Sunday, as he slugged a pair of monstrous homers off starter George Kirby before adding an RBI double in the seventh inning. "Hot" likely undersells how well Sheets has been swinging the bat of late, as the 30-year-old is 10-for-19 (.526) over his past seven games with four homers, eight RBI, six runs and a stolen base during that stretch. On the season, the big lefty is slashing .262/.340/.556 with nine homers, 10 doubles, 21 RBI, 19 runs and three stolen bases across 141 plate appearances.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Remains hot Saturday
Sheets went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks Saturday in a 7-4 win against the Mariners.
Sheets began the scoring for San Diego with a solo blast to right-center field in the second inning. He added a pair of walks to reach base multiple times for a fifth straight game. Over that stretch, Sheets is batting a robust .538 (7-for-13) with two homers, four RBI, a stolen base and five walks while striking out just once. He's now started eight straight games for the Padres, splitting his time between first base, left field and DH.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Nabs steal in win
Sheets went 2-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 2-0 win over the Mariners.
Sheets helped manufacture the Padres' first run with a walk and a steal in the fourth inning before scoring on a Miguel Andujar double. This was Sheets' second multi-hit effort over his last four games, and he's added three walks in that span. He's now batting .240 with a .766 OPS, a career-high three steals, six home runs, 16 RBI, 16 runs scored and nine doubles over 132 plate appearances this season in a strong-side platoon role.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Swats go-ahead three-run homer
Sheets went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Milwaukee.
Sheets played the part of hero Wednesday, drilling a go-ahead three-run blast off Brewers right-hander Abner Uribe in the ninth inning. The left-handed-hitting slugger tends to sit versus southpaws, having taken only nine at-bats against left-handed pitching so far, but he's been a reliable source of power for the Padres when he's in the lineup. Sheets is batting just .226 over 115 at-bats overall, but he does have six long balls, nine doubles and 16 RBI.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Logs second steal
Sheets went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-5 win over the Giants.
Sheets had gone 0-for-9 with a walk and three strikeouts over his previous five games. The 30-year-old ended the slump with his first multi-hit effort since April 15 against the Mariners. He's hitting .224 with a .708 OPS, four home runs, 12 RBI, 12 runs scored, nine doubles and two steals across 104 plate appearances. Sheets has seen the bulk of his playing time at first base this year, but Ty France's recent strong hitting could force more of a timeshare at that position. Sheets also competes with Miguel Andujar for playing time at designated hitter and in the corner outfield, so the former will need to get his bat right to avoid losing playing time.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Taking seat Wednesday
Sheets is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
Right-hander Jameson Taillon is toeing the slab for the Cubs, and this marks just the second time this season that the left-handed-swinging Sheets is out of the lineup versus a righty. Manny Machado is getting a start at designated hitter, and Ty France will be at first base for the Padres in Wednesday's rubber match.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Goes deep Monday
Sheets slugged a solo home run in his only plate appearance during Monday's 9-7 win against the Cubs.
Sheets began the game on the bench but entered in the seventh inning after Manny Machado was lifted as a precaution due to concern about an unspecified injury. Sheets made the most of his lone plate appearance, slugging a solo homer to right field in the bottom of the eighth frame. The long ball extended his modest hitting streak to four games, and Sheets has gone 4-for-11 with a pair of homers, three runs and six RBI during that span.

Padres' Gavin Sheets: Produces key homer on birthday
Sheets went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run in a 10-8 win against Colorado on Thursday.
On the day he turned 30 years old, Sheets began the game on the bench. However, he replaced Ty France in the eighth inning and came through with a huge three-run blast in the ninth that ultimately decided the outcome of the game. Through 79 plate appearances, Sheets is slashing .227/.266/.467 with three homers, nine doubles, nine runs, nine RBI and one stolen base while making starts at first base, in left field and at DH, primarily against right-handed pitchers.

Sheets opened the scoring with a solo shot in the fifth inning and then walked it off with a three-run blast in the ninth.

The 29-year-old is now batting .256 with a .785 OPS, six RBI, six runs scored, five doubles and a stolen base over 13 contests.

Sheets is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Sheets sat against Boston lefty Connelly Early on Saturday and will do so again Sunday versus southpaw Ranger Suarez. Sheets' only start against a lefty came on Opening Day. The 29-year-old has a .636 OPS through 21 plate appearances this year, though he's been more productive over his past three contests, going 5-for-10 with two doubles, a steal, two RBI and three runs.
