Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Takes seat Friday

Stanton is absent from the lineup Friday at Kansas City.

Aaron Judge will fill the DH role as Everson Pereira, Estevan Florial and Oswaldo Cabrera start across the outfield. Stanton is sitting on a four-game hitting streak, but he has posted an overall .191 batting average and .275 on-base percentage through 415 plate appearances this season with New York.
