Ben Rice, Oswaldo Cabrera Sitting On Sunday
New York Yankees first baseman Ben Rice and utility player Oswaldo Cabrera are not in the starting lineup when they conclude a three-game set against the Pittsburgh Pirates. With southpaw Andrew Heaney getting the starting nod for the Pirates, Rice will retreat to the bench. Cabrera was also held out of action on Saturday. As a result, Aaron Judge will shift to the designated hitter spot, and Oswald Peraza will get another start at the hot corner. With Judge shifted to DH, Trent Grisham will be able to stay in the lineup even with Cody Bellinger (back) returning to action. Rice has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, posting a .320/.433/.640 slash line with two home runs. Cabrera has held a strong .316 AVG but appears to be losing time to Peraza. Both players will likely return tomorrow afternoon, facing right-hander Casey Mize.
