The 28-year-old outfielder sat the previous two contests after exiting Monday’s game with tightness in his left hamstring. He’s back in his familiar spot at the top of the Yankees’ lineup and will man center field for the Bombers against Chris Bassitt and the Blue Jays.

The 30-year-old infielder opted out of his minor league deal with the Diamondbacks a few days ago in search of greener pastures. He has appeared in 18 games at the big league level this season, slashing a dreadful .042/.179/.042 with zero homers, one RBI and a 4/4 K/BB ratio in 28 plate appearances between the Cubs and Angels. He’ll add infield depth for the Bombers.

The 25-year-old backstop had missed each of the team’s previous four games due to artery damage in his left index finger that had been giving him an intermittent cold sensation and discoloration. He’s behind the dish and batting eighth against Chris Bassitt and company on Thursday evening in Toronto.

The 24-year-old has gotten off to a strong start at Triple-A, going 6-for-16 with three home runs and three RBI. He also has seven strikeouts in four games and remains a major swing-and-miss risk after posting an 18.5 percent swinging strike rate at Double-A as a 24-year-old. With no obvious spot in the outfield, you wonder if the Yankees would use this hot streak by Jones to try and move him at the deadline for an infield bat that could help the Yankees this season.

Adell roped a two-out single in the first inning off rookie Didier Fuentes that gave his Angels a lead they held until the sixth. In that at-bat, Adell fell behind 1-2 and the old Adell may have chased one of the sweeper Fuentes left wide to end that threat. Instead, he laid off them and waited for the fastball he eventually smoked. Apart from that hit, he had two more hard-hit balls throughout this game and continues to mash in what finally feels like a breakout season.

There’s an avenue for Barrero to make it to Baltimore’s injury-depleted bench mix at some point in the coming weeks with utility specialist Jorge Mateo facing a two-month absence due to a hamstring strain. The 27-year-old elected free agency over the weekend after being jettisoned from St. Louis’ 40-man roster and passing through waivers unclaimed.

He’s now up to 28 steals on the season to go along with 15 home runs, which is propping up his fantasy value that would otherwise be torpedoed by a .210/.322/.416 slash line. The 26-year-old has been disciplined a few times this year for a lack of hustle, and his defense has not shown signs of improvement in center field. Given his poor defense and clear frustration, it might make sense for the Pirates to see what they can get for a talented player with major contact concerns. In the meantime, fantasy managers should continue to put Cruz in their lineup if they need stolen bases, but if you’re doing well in that category, you could also explore trading or benching Cruz.
