Rice is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

It's southpaw Tyler Anderson toeing the rubber for the Angels, so the left-handed hitting Rice will take a seat. DJ LeMahieu is handling first base for the Yankees.

Rice isn't in the Yankees' lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Rice went 0-for-2 with two walks and a run scored during the Yankees' victory in Game 1, and he'll now sit down for the second half of Wednesday's twin bill. DJ LeMahieu will get the starting nod at first base instead and bat eighth.

Rice is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Rice has slumped to a .152/.255/.348 slash line since the All-Star break and will give way Sunday to DJ LeMahieu, who will draw another start at first base after breaking out of his season-long swoon at the plate by going 2-for-4 with a home run and six RBI while filling in for Rice in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Phillies. Though the lefty-hitting Rice is on the bench against a right-hander (Yariel Rodriguez) on Sunday, Rodriguez sports reverse splits for the season, which likely factored into the Yankees' decision to hold Rice out of the lineup.

Rice is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

The left-handed-hitting Rice will take a seat for the series finale while the Phillies send southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the bump. Rice will put a four-game hitting streak on hold and give way to DJ LeMahieu at first base.

Rice went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run against the Phillies in Monday's 14-4 victory.

EDGE Analysis

Rice hit one of six Yankees homers in the contest, smashing a solo shot in the second inning. The rookie had been cold coming in, slashing just .107/.229/.214 without a homer over his previous nine games. It remains to be seen what the Yankees will do on the final day before the trade deadline, but Rice appears to have a path to a near-everyday role at first base -- at least until Anthony Rizzo (forearm) return to health -- after J.D. Davis was designated for assignment Sunday.

Rice is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

The Mets have started southpaws in both games of the series and Rice has been out of the lineup both times, although he logged two plate appearances off the bench Tuesday. DJ LeMahieu is at first base Wednesday while Oswaldo Cabrera handles the hot corner.

Rice is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

It will be the right-handed hitting J.D. Davis handling first base as the Mets send southpaw Jose Quintana to the hill. Rice will yield the leadoff spot to Jahmai Jones.

Rice went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Orioles on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Rice was hitless through four at-bats but came through when it mattered most, swatting a three-run homer in the ninth inning off Baltimore closer Craig Kimbrel to give New York a 5-3 lead. That result didn't hold, as the Orioles plated three runs in the bottom of the frame to pull out the victory, but Rice's heroics still stand out. While the rookie is batting just .228 on the campaign, he's shown a flair for the big moment, batting .280 with runners in scoring position and already adding a three-homer game to his big-league resume.

Rice went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run Tuesday in a loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Rice brought New York to within a run with his two-run shot in the seventh frame, but the team was unable to score again. The rookie first baseman continues to thrive in the majors, as he's slashing .267/.348/.567 with five home runs, three doubles, nine runs and 14 RBI over just 19 contests covering 69 plate appearances. All five of Rice's homers and 10 of his RBI have come over his past five games.

Rice went 3-for-5 with three home runs and seven RBI in a 14-4 win over the Red Sox on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Rice opened the scoring with a leadoff home run in the first inning and added three-run blasts in the fifth and seventh. According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, he is the first rookie in Yankees history with a three-homer game. The 25-year-old is hitting .294 with four home runs and 12 RBI through his first 60 major-league plate appearances while earning opportunities to hit atop one of the league's best lineups.
