Yandy Díaz - Page 38 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Sitting versus lefty Tsutsugo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact With a southpaw (Tommy Milone) on the mound for Baltimore, Rays manager Kevin Cash has elected to stock up on some extra right-handed bats in the series finale. As a result, two lefty-dominant hitters in Tsutsugo and Ji-Man Choi will take a seat, opening up starts in left field and at first base for Manuel Margot and Yandy Diaz, respectively.

Sitting with shoulder soreness Choi (shoulder) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Braves.

Impact He exited Tuesday's game with right shoulder soreness and will need at least another day to get right. Yandy Diaz will start at first base while Joey Wendle occupies the hot corner. Choi could be available off the bench, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

On base three times in win Diaz went 1-for-2 with two walks in a win over the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Impact The slugger was able to get his first hit of the season after going 0-for-4 in Friday's opener, and he drew another pair of free passes after notching one walk in the first game of the season. Diaz has displayed a good eye at the plate with double-digit walk rates in two of his first three big-league seasons, and if his injury-shortened 2019 campaign is any indication, he's ready to complement that patience with robust power numbers; Diaz slugged 35 extra-base hits (20 doubles, one triple, 14 home runs) over 79 games last season before belting two homers in the AL Wild Card Game. Additionally, Juan Toribio of MLB.com previously reported that the 28-year-old was one of the most impressive all-around players in summer camp, leading manager Kevin Cash to remark that Diaz "just gets out of bed and hits."
