Gardner has been diagnosed with an abdominal strain, MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reports. Gardner has been sidelined with abdominal tightness for a few days, but the Yankees are now classifying his injury as a strain, which hints at the setback being more severe than originally thought. Gardner is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, and he will instead visit with a Yankees team doctor for further evaluation of his injury.
