Rizzo (concussion) will undergo tests Tuesday in New York, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was reported Friday that Rizzo was close to resuming baseball activities, and the exams he is set to take could reveal whether or not he is ready to do so. Rizzo, per the report, "feels like he is progressing," but it was also noted that he has only done "some light agility in the outfield and walked at an incline on the treadmill."

Rizzo (head) said Friday that he is aiming to ramp up his baseball activities within the next week, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rizzo was placed on the injured list Aug. 3 due to post-concussion syndrome, stemming from a collision with Fernando Tatis back in late May. He has already played some catch and said he's been performing better in his concussion protocol tests. There's no exact timetable for Rizzo's return to the Yankees' active roster, but the veteran first baseman seems to be moving in an encouraging direction.

The Yankees placed Rizzo on the 10-day injured list Thursday with post-concussion syndrome, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This concussion apparently stems all the way back to Rizzo's collision with Fernando Tatis in late May. He passed through concussion protocol at the time but has recently been experiencing residual fogginess, per Hoch. Jake Bauers is playing first base Thursday against the Astros and should continue to get a lot of run there while Rizzo is on the shelf. There is currently no timetable for his return.

Rizzo is out of the lineup again Thursday versus the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

It's the second straight absence for Rizzo -- this time against a right-hander -- as he continues to struggle mightily at the dish. The veteran first baseman is slashing just .170/.235/.223 with one home run and 27 strikeouts in 24 games (102 plate appearances) since the beginning of July. Jake Bauers will play first and bat leadoff for the Yankees on Thursday in New York.

Rizzo is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Jake Bauers will play first base and bat fifth with ace left-hander Shane McClanahan set to start for Tampa Bay. The left-handed-hitting Rizzo has actually fared better versus lefties than righties this year, but he carries a disappointing .706 OPS across 421 overall plate appearances.

Rizzo went 4-for-4 with a double, a home run, two RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 8-5 victory over Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

It was a huge day for Rizzo after he'd gone just 1-for-21 over his last five games. His home run, a solo shot off Jordan Lyles in the third inning, was his first since May 20, ending a 45-game drought. It's certainly the type of game the Yankees needed from the 33-year-old Rizzo, who came into the game batting just .154 with a .459 OPS in 38 games since the start of June. Overall, he's slashing .253/.338/.398 with 44 runs scored and 41 RBI through 390 plate appearances this season.

Rizzo is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Rizzo is in the middle of a prolonged slump, sporting a .156/.275/.195 batting line with zero home runs since the beginning of June. DJ LeMahieu will handle first base for the Yankees on Wednesday.

Rizzo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Rizzo was set to sit Friday due to an elbow issue before the game was postponed, but he started both games of Saturday's twin bill and went 1-for-6 with three walks. The trip to the bench will end a stretch of 17 straight starts for the 33-year-old. Jake Bauers will man first base in his place Sunday while Oswaldo Cabrera receives a start in left field.

Rizzo (elbow) is starting as the Yankees' designated hitter in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

After taking a pitch to the elbow Thursday, Rizzo was slated for an off day Friday before the game was postponed. After a day of rest, Rizzo will return to the lineup without missing a game. The 33-year-old first baseman is 3-for-15 with three runs scored across his last five games.

Rizzo (elbow) is not in the lineup Friday at St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Rizzo will get the night off after taking a pitch off his elbow late in Thursday's series finale against the Athletics. X-rays turned up negative for any fractures, and he should be able to return Saturday. DJ LeMahieu is starting at first base and batting leadoff.
