Frazier’s playing time has been on a downward trend for a while. Games started per month trend (before today):

21-24-19-17-8

Westburg plays better defense, but they both have low OBP and OPS+. Frazier has a slightly higher slugging. Westburg lost near 100 points in OPS since he's been an every day player for the most part. LHB in the lineup for a guy who isn't going to sit on the bench every day for the rest of the year but has basically been relegated to the bench. Nothing shocking here. RHB have an OPS+ of 87 against Berrios, LHB 113 over his career. This year is 68 OPS+ for RHB and 106 for LHB.

Playing a JV team deserves a JV lineup I guess.   

LOL. Best team in the AL doesn’t have a ‘JV lineup.’  Jesus. Who’s even missing that would make this a varsity game?  O’Hearn? Frazier?  I guess Mullins but its a LH pitcher and a good time to steal a day off for him.
 

Give me a break.

Any lineup with Mateo and McKenna is, by definition, JV.  😉

Wonder why they are giving Mullins today off?  I do think they may try to be careful with him and rest him on occasion but I’m surprised they didn’t wait until Sunday to do it since he hit the homer yesterday and maybe is getting into a groove. 
 

Maybe only want him doing only so many consecutive games right now?

I think this is likely it, he made some really hard running plays in the OF and they are probably just being cautious with him and giving him the night off with a LHP, I wouldn't be shocked if he PH if needed.
