2 years agoHouston Astros infielder Mauricio Dubon is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the New York Yankees. Dubon will start on the bench for the second straight day now that Aledmys Diaz (shoulder) is back after missing four games. Dubon has been a solid replacement for the Phillies this month, going 8-for-27 (.296) with a homer, two doubles, five RBI and a stolen bases in 11 games in June. Diaz will start at shortstop on Saturday and hit sixth against Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole. Diaz is hitting only .216 on the year with three home runs and 14 RBI in 125 at-bats, and he's gone 7-for-31 (.226) with a homer and four RBI in nine games in June.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
