Geraldo Perdomo to Remain in Lower Third of Lineup

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo confirmed that the current plan is to keep shortstop Geraldo Perdomo in the lower-third of the batting order. While Perdomo provides defensive stability, the coaching staff prefers his current placement in the bottom three spots for the time being to optimize the team's offensive flow and production. Perdomo is confirmed in the starting lineup for the Diamondbacks' recent game against the Nationals.
