Masataka Yoshida: Breaking News

Yoshida will start at designated hitter and bat leadoff in Sunday's game against the Rangers. After being left out of the lineup for the first two contests of the series even with the Rangers sending a pair of right-handers to the hill, Yoshida will make his return to the starting nine as Boston's table setter. Mickey Gasper filled those duties the previous two games, but he'll head to the bench Sunday while he manages a tight groin. If Gasper's groin issue is only a short-term concern, Yoshida might have to settle for a part-time role while he's running cold at the plate. Since the start of June, Yoshida has gone 2-for-18 with a 1:6 BB:K in five games.

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.

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.
