The Yankees transferred Rizzo (forearm) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran first baseman is expected to be sidelined eight weeks after he landed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a fractured right forearm, so the move to the 60-day IL doesn't come as a major surprise. Rizzo will be shut down from baseball activities for up to five weeks. Gerrit Cole (elbow) was activated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding transaction and is making his season debut Wednesday against the Orioles.

The Yankees placed Rizzo on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a right forearm fracture.

EDGE Analysis

Per Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News, Rizzo will be shut down from all activities for up to five weeks, and it will be eight weeks until he's ready to play in games. Ben Rice is up to take his roster spot and is starting at first base Tuesday against the Orioles in his major-league debut. The Yankees also figure to use DJ LeMahieu at first base and Oswaldo Cabrera at third base some days while Rizzo is shelved.

With the Yankees off Monday, the first baseman seems set to be officially placed on the injured list Tuesday, while his replacement on the roster is still unknown. In Rizzo's absence, DJ LeMahieu could see the majority of his workload over at first base while Oswaldo Cabrera picks up some starts at the hot corner.

EDGE Analysis

Rizzo has gone 1-for-29 over the past seven games and will hit the bench Sunday after starting the previous eight contests. According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, manager Aaron Boone said the veteran first baseman may also be held out of the lineup Monday in Kansas City, which would give him a couple days for a mental reset. DJ LeMahieu will shift to first base while Oswaldo Cabrera starts at the hot corner.

Rizzo isn't in the Yankees' lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Rizzo owns a .351 OPS across his past six games, so the Yankees will give him a rare day off Thursday so he can clear his head. DJ LeMahieu will shift to first base while Oswaldo Cabrera starts at the hot corner, batting ninth.
