The Chicago Cubs did not include Matt Mervis in their lineup for Sunday's game against the San Diego Padres.
Mervis will take a seat Sunday while Trey Mancini fills in at first base and bats seventh against the Padres.
Mervis has struggled since his callup from Triple-A, batting just .179 through his first 74 plate appearances. He has 2 home runs, 6 runs, and 7 RBI.
