Granderson is not in the lineup for Game 3 of the NLCS against the Cubs on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of TrueBlueLA.com reports. Granderson -- who has struggled since joining the Dodgers via trade in August -- is just 1-for-11 (.091) so far in the postseason, so he'll open Game 3 on the bench even with a right-hander pitcher (Kyle Hendricks) toeing the rubber for the opposition. In his place, Andre Ethier will start in left field and bat fifth.

Granderson is not in the lineup for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Diamondbacks on Saturday, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports. As expected, Granderson will open the game on the bench with a southpaw (Robbie Ray) starting for the opposition. Enrique Hernandez will start in left field and bat fifth in his absence, something that figures to continue throughout the postseason when the Dodgers face a lefty starter.

Granderson is not in the lineup Sunday against the Rockies. Granderson is riding a six-game hitting streak but will be replaced in left field by Enrique Hernandez. The 36-year-old is hitting just .183 in September and will need find his stroke quickly if he's going to be a real asset for the Dodgers in the playoffs.

Granderson is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports. With a lefty (Clayton Richard) toeing the rubber for the Padres, Granderson will retreat to the bench for a third straight game. The 36-year-old started on the bench against a righty Tuesday, but he came on as a pinch hitter and delivered a double. In his place, Enrique Hernandez is batting fifth and starting in left field.

Granderson is not in the lineup Tuesday for the second straight day. He's had a rough go of it this month, posting a .528 OPS in September. He will not start for the third time in four games, and will give way to Andre Ethier on Tuesday.
