Yandy Diaz Out Wednesday, Available To Pinch Hit
6 years agoTampa Bay Rays third baseman Yandy Diaz (ankle) will sit on Wednesday against right-hander German Marquez and the Rockies. Diaz tweaked his ankle and left the game early Tuesday night, however, he said he'll be available to pinch hit if needed. Manager Kevin Cash said that Diaz was scheduled for an off day Wednesday anyway, so this doesn't signify anything serious. Look for Diaz to be back in the lineup on Friday where he'll be welcomed by two right-handed pitchers in the series. In 21 at-bats this season, he's slashing .375/.474/.750 and one home run against righties. Feel free to fire him up as a streamer, as he's only owned in 14 percent of Yahoo leagues.
