Brett Gardner Sitting Wednesday
6 years agoNew York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner is not in the lineup for Wednesday's matchup against Matthew Boyd and the Detroit Tigers. Gardner had been leading off for the Yankees due to injuries to Aaron Hicks and Giancarlo Stanton, but now gets a breather. Third baseman DJ LeMahieu will lead off, while Mike Tauchman plays center field batting ninth. LeMahieu, who has reached base in 10 of his 16 plate appearances so far this year, could be an interesting DFS play from the leadoff spot. Gardner, as long as he keeps leading off while Hicks and Stanton remain out, is worth a spot in standard leagues if you need outfield help.
