Sitting against righty Vivas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Vivas will take a seat for the fifth time in eight games, with two of those absences coming against right-handed pitching. Oswald Peraza appears to have supplanted Vivas as the Yankees' preferred option at third base, and the latter could be at risk of a demotion to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the near future with Jazz Chisholm (oblique) close to a return from the injured list.

On bench against righty Vivas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Vivas was on the bench for Saturday's 3-2 loss while the Rockies sent southpaw Kyle Freeland to the hill, but the infielder's absence from the lineup Sunday is more noteworthy with right-hander Antonio Senzatela starting for Colorado. Though he's been occupying the strong side of a platoon at third base with Oswald Peraza, VIvas is hitting just .167 since getting called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 2 and could soon be at risk of a demotion if he doesn't pick up the pace soon.

Jorbit Vivas' first career home run The Yankees' Jorbit Vivas hit his first career home run on May 22, 2025, against the Texas Rangers.

MAY 22 • NEWSDAY.COM

Slugs first homer in victory Vivas went 1-for-1 with a solo home run in two plate appearances during Thursday's 1-0 win over the Rangers.

Impact Vivas picked a good time for his first home run of the season, scoring the only run of the game off of Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi. Vivas also reached base on catcher's interference as part of a perfect day at the plate before being replaced by DJ LeMahieu in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old will look to use this game to get going offensively as even after today, he is hitting just .182 for the season.

Serving as primary third baseman Vivas will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Since Oswaldo Cabrera landed on the injured list May 13 with what's expected to be a season-ending ankle injury, Vivas has taken over the strong side of a platoon at third base with Oswald Peraza. The 24-year-old's grasp on a regular role may be tenuous, however, as he's maintained a weak .167/.265/.200 slash line over his first 34 big-league plate appearances. Though Cabrera is likely done for the season, Jazz Chisholm (oblique) could return from the IL at some point in June, at which point he or DJ LeMahieu could poach playing time from both Vivas and Peraza at the hot corner.

Sitting Monday Vivas is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Mariners on Monday.

Impact Vivas will begin Monday's game on the bench while Oswald Peraza starts at second base and bats ninth. Since being recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 2, Vivas has gone 3-for-19 with three runs scored, three RBI and a 30.4 percent strikeout rate. He'll likely see his playing time diminish once DJ LeMahieu (calf) -- who is with the Yankees in Seattle -- returns from the 10-day injured list.
