Astros' Abraham Toro: Takes seat Tuesday

Toro is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against Seattle, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Toro will yield third-base duties to Aledys Diaz despite homering in each of the past two contests. He could still see the bulk of time at the hot corner during the next few games, but Toro's role is almost certain to diminish once Alex Bregman (quad) is activated at some point in the near future.
