Yoshida is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays. The Rays are having left-hander Ian Seymour open the game, so the left-handed-hitting Yoshida will begin Monday's contest on the bench. In Yoshida's stead, the Red Sox will go with Mickey Gasper at designated hitter.

Atones for miscue
Yoshida went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 9-4 win over Cleveland. Yoshida's two run-single during a six-run seventh inning gave Boston a lead it never relinquished. The go-ahead hit atoned for a fourth-inning miscue, when he lost sight of a fly ball in left field that led to the Guardians taking a lead. Yoshida is getting regular work with Roman Anthony's rehab from a finger injury taking longer than originally anticipated. The outfield/DH logjam that had limited Yoshida's playing time earlier in the season has cleared up for the time being.
Out of lineup Thursday
Yoshida is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com Yoshida will sit out of Thursday's lineup since left-hander Chris Sale is taking the mound for Atlanta. Boston will opt to go with Andruw Monasterio as the DH, batting fifth. Yoshida has only recorded 16 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers this season and has a .200/.250/.333 slash line in that split.
