Josh Donaldson Returns To Lineup Wednesday
2 years agoNew York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson is back at third base and is hitting fifth on Wednesday against Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Shane McClanahan after serving his one-game suspension on Tuesday. With DJ LeMahieu shifting to second base while hitting leadoff, Gleyber Torres will serve as the designated hitter and bat sixth on Wednesday. Since returning from a stint on the COVID injured list and while being sidelined with a shoulder injury, Donaldson hasn't done much at the plate, going 7-for-32 (.219) with no home runs, three RBI and nine strikeouts in eight games since June 3. Overall, he's hitting just .235/.335/.395 with five homers and 18 RBI in 191 plate appearances and will be a weak DFS play against a strong left-hander.
