Jose Caballero Sitting With an Elbow Injury
New York Yankees infielder Jose Caballero (elbow) will take a seat for Thursday's series finale against the visiting Texas Rangers in the Bronx, per MLB.com. Caballero will be given the day off after he was hit by a pitch on his left elbow in Wednesday's game. Max Schuemann is starting at shortstop and will bat eighth for the Yankees against Rangers left-hander MacKenzie Gore. Caballero stayed in Wednesday's game, so he should be ready to return for Friday's series opener on the road against the Milwaukee Brewers. The speedy infielder is still the team's starting shortstop after Anthony Volpe was reinstated from the injured list and optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The 29-year-old native of Panama is a fine fantasy baseball asset in most leagues for his speed. He's slashing .256/.311/.400 with four home runs, 13 RBI, 13 stolen bases, and 17 runs scored for the Yankees in his first 125 at-bats of the year. Schuemann can be ignored for DFS purposes at the bottom of the lineup. He's hitless in four career at-bats versus Gore.
