The Yankees\u2019 starting lineup for their second game against the Dodgers this weekend didn\u2019t include Juan Soto again, with manager Aaron Boone saying that they\u2019re \u201cleaning toward giving it a couple days\u201d before the outfielder returns.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Soto, who exited Thursday\u2019s win against the Twins with left forearm soreness, didn\u2019t play Friday after undergoing tests that revealed elbow inflammation \u2014 and, perhaps more importantly, didn\u2019t reveal anything else \u2014 and led to his feeling \u201crelief,\u201d as he described it after the Yankees\u2019 extra-innings loss to open the series against Los Angeles. <\/p>\n
When asked if a stint on the injured list remained a possibility if Soto didn\u2019t show improvement, Boone said, \u201cI guess,\u201d but added that he doesn\u2019t anticipate that scenario materializing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen he\u2019s ready, he\u2019s ready,\u201d Boone said Saturday before the Yankees and Dodgers met at Yankee Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Soto hadn\u2019t participated in any baseball activities Saturday when Boone spoke with reporters three hours before first pitch, but he didn\u2019t know if that would change. <\/p>\n
Boone said he asked Soto \u2014 who was receiving treatment \u2014 earlier in the afternoon how he was feeling, and the outfielder responded that he was good.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So for the second consecutive night, the Yankees used Trent Grisham in center field and shifted Aaron Judge to right with Alex Verdugo in left field. <\/p>\n
Soto\u2019s absence still left a glaring absence in the Yankees\u2019 lineup, though, with the 25-year-old hitting .318 \u2014 the second-best average in the American League behind the Royals\u2019 Bobby Witt Jr. (.320) entering Saturday\u2019s games \u2014 and launching 17 homers while slotted ahead of Judge in the batting order.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Soto hasn\u2019t missed consecutive games since back tightness sidelined him for three in a row in August 2022. <\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t sit out a single Padres game last year. <\/p>\n
He even played through the forearm soreness for about a week-and-a-half or two weeks this year, he revealed earlier in the week, and added that it hadn\u2019t prevented him from doing anything when playing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That doesn\u2019t mean his current forearm inflammation has reached a concerning or an alarming status. <\/p>\n
But, as Soto\u2019s latest absence captured, the opposite of that doesn\u2019t necessarily correlate to an instant return, either.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think he sees the big picture in all this, too,\u201d Boone said. \u201cAnd as much as this environment, this series, I mean I\u2019m sure there\u2019s part of it that\u2019s killing him not being in it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I think he\u2019s also like, \u2018I also know I want to get this inflammation out of here and we can roll.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
