Out versus southpaw

Sitting against right-hander
Rice is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Impact
Rice has slumped to a .152/.255/.348 slash line since the All-Star break and has already begun to lose out on starts against left-handed pitching, and his regular spot in the lineup against right-handed pitching could soon be in jeopardy too if he's unable to bounce back at the plate. DJ LeMahieu will draw the start at first base Sunday against Blue Jays righty Yariel Rodriguez after breaking out his season-long swoon at the plate by going 2-for-4 with a home run and six RBI while filling in for Rice in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Phillies.

Taking seat Wednesday
Rice is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
Impact
The left-handed-hitting Rice will take a seat for the series while the Phillies send southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the bump. He'll put a four-game hitting streak on hold and give way to DJ LeMahieu at first base.

Knocks seventh homer
Rice went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run against the Phillies in Monday's 14-4 victory.
Impact
Rice hit one of six Yankees homers in the contest, smashing a solo shot in the second inning. The rookie had been cold coming in, slashing just .107/.229/.214 without a homer over his previous nine games. It remains to be seen what the Yankees will do on the final day before the trade deadline, but Rice appears to have a path to a near-everyday role at first base -- at least until Anthony Rizzo (forearm) return to health -- after J.D. Davis was designated for assignment Sunday.

Impact
The Mets have started southpaws in both games of the series and Rice has been out of the lineup both times, although he did receive two plate appearances off the bench Tuesday. DJ LeMahieu is at first base Wednesday while Oswaldo Cabrera handles the hot corner.

On bench Tuesday
Rice is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Mets.
Impact
It will be the right-handed hitting J.D. Davis handling first base as the Mets send southpaw Jose Quintana to the hill. Rice will yield the leadoff spot to Jahmai Jones.

Clubs clutch homer Sunday
Rice went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Orioles on Sunday.
Impact
Rice was hitless through four at-bats but came through when it mattered most, swatting a three-run homer in the ninth inning off Baltimore closer Craig Kimbrel to give New York a 5-3 lead. That result didn't hold, as the Orioles plated three runs in the bottom of the frame to pull out the victory, but Rice's heroics still stand out. While the rookie is batting just .228 on the campaign, he's shown a flair for the big moment, batting .280 with runners in scoring position and already adding a three-homer game to his big-league resume.

Slugs fifth homer
Rice went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run Tuesday in a loss to the Rays.
Impact
Rice brought New York to within a run with his two-run shot in the seventh frame, but the team was unable to score again. The rookie first baseman continues to thrive in the majors, as he's slashing .267/.348/.567 with five home runs, three doubles, nine runs and 14 RBI over just 19 contests covering 69 plate appearances. All five of Rice's homers and 10 of his RBI have come over his past five games.
