Rejoins lineup Margot (groin) will start in center field and bat cleanup Sunday against the Yankees, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The outfielder will be occupying a prominent spot in the batting order with a lefty (Jordan Montgomery) on the hill for New York, but Margot will likely hit in the bottom half of the lineup versus right-handed pitching more often than not.
