    • Gleyber Torres returns to Yankees lineup Friday
      Gleyber Torres returned to the Yankees’ starting lineup on Friday night.

      Advice: Torres may have been dealing with a minor injury, or his absence from the lineup the last two days could have been a punishment for failing to run out a ground ball. Either way, he’s back in there at second base and batting fifth against Yusei Kikuchi and the Blue Jays on Friday evening in Toronto. The 27-year-old is slashing a miserable .215/.294/.333 with seven homers, 29 RBI and four stolen bases on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:27 pm
       
    • Returns to lineup
      Torres is batting fifth and playing second base Friday at Toronto.

      Advice: Torres is 2-for-29 at the plate since June 14 and was given back-to-back days off to clear his head amid the slump. The second baseman is 10-for-26 (.385) in his career against Yusei Kikuchi, who's the Blue Jays' starting pitcher Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:23 pm
       
    • Ketel Marte doubles and homers in loss to Twins
      Ketel Marte homered and doubled in a blowout loss Thursday to the Twins.

      Advice: Marte now has 17 homers on the season to go with 17 doubles. It’s been a fantastic season for the 30-year-old even in a shaky — to put it nicely — season for the Diamondbacks with those numbers along with 47 RBI and an .863 OPS. Rotoworld Thursday, 4:45 pm
       
    • Could be back Friday
      Manager Aaron Boone said there's a "good chance" Torres returns to the lineup Friday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Torres has been out of the lineup Wednesday and Thursday after slumping both at the plate and with the glove of late. Boone did not commit to any specific plan, so it will be important to check the official lineup before Friday's 7:07 pm ET first pitch. Rotowire.com Thursday, 4:21 pm
       
    • Gleyber Torres remains out of Thursday’s lineup
      Gleyber Torres (groin) remains out of the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Torres will sit out his second straight contest due to an ongoing groin issue, but Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters he expects him back in the lineup on Friday. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:15 pm
       
    • Riding bench again Thursday
      Torres is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Toronto.

      Advice: Yankees manager Aaron Boone had intimated after not starting Torres on Wednesday that the second baseman might get an additional day off to regroup, and the skipper has done just that. Torres is in a 2-for-29 slump at the plate and has also had some defensive lapses. Jahmai Jones is getting a rare start at the keystone Thursday. Rotowire.com Thursday, 1:05 pm
       
    • Takes seat after poor game Tuesday
      Torres is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mets.

      Advice: For the second game in a row, Torres was held hitless Tuesday in the Yankees' 9-7 loss, leaving him in a 2-for-29 slump at the dish over his last nine games. To make matters worse, Torres committed an error at second base and also didn't run out a grounder at full speed in the eighth inning, with the latter play not escaping manager Aaron Boone's attention, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Boone indicated that Torres is doing OK physically, but the skipper thought a day on the bench could be beneficial for the 27-year-old while he's in the midst of a rough patch. Oswaldo Cabrera will pick up the start at second base in place of Torres. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 1:16 pm
       
    • Gleyber Torres (groin) absent from lineup
      Gleyber Torres, who complained of groin tightness after Tuesday’s game, is out of Wednesday’s lineup.

      Advice: Torres was criticized for missing a grounder and not hustling to first last night, though the groin seemed to explain the latter and Aaron Boone seemed more concerned about the former. Oswaldo Cabrera is playing second base tonight. Rotoworld Wednesday, 1:01 pm
       
    • Key role in win
      Marte went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Twins.

      Advice: Marte's homer opened the scoring in the first inning and he added a go-ahead RBI single in the seventh to put the Diamondbacks ahead for good. The second baseman had gone just 2-for-16 over his previous four contests before this multi-hit effort. He's been a big contributor throughout the campaign with a .280/.340/.507 slash line, 16 homers, 46 RBI, 51 runs scored and three stolen bases across 76 games. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:03 pm
