Tauchman remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays. The Yankees have welcomed back the likes of Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Gio Urshela back from the injured list over the last two days, and Gleyber Torres' eventual return from a quadriceps injury will put New York's star-studded lineup back at full strength. All of those returns spell bad news for Tauchman, who finds himself out of the lineup for the fourth time in five games. All of Judge, Aaron Hicks, Clint Frazier and Brett Gardner appear to be ahead of him for starts in the outfield.

Tauchman is not in Sunday's lineup against the Orioles. Tauchman is 4-for-18 with zero homers and one steal this month, and three of those four hits came in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader against Baltimore. Clint Frazier will get the start in right field while Gary Sanchez starts at designated hitter.

Tauchman went 3-for-3 with a run, an RBI and a stolen base in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader sweep over the Orioles. Tauchman did not play in the nightcap, but he got the start and swatted three singles in the opener. He plated the Yankees' final run in the seven-inning win with a base hit to center field. The three-hit game helped Tauchman snap a 12-game slump in which he had collected only two base knocks in 29 at-bats, though he did draw eight walks over that span. The outfielder is slashing .265/.367/.325 on the season.

Speed and defense type. Maybe a bench guy if Gardner doesn't come back or Tauchman is moved.

If they can get something of value for Tauchman, do it and yell "no trade backs!"
