Gregorius is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Coley Harvey of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees are still easing Gregorius along slowly following his return from Tommy John surgery earlier this month, so he'll sit for the third time in nine contests. With Gregorius taking a seat, Gleyber Torres will shift over to shortstop while Gio Urshela enters the starting nine at third base.

Gregorius is not in the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mets, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius went 2-for-5 with a double and a run in the afternoon contest. He won't be asked to play two games in one day so soon after returning from Tommy John surgery. Gleyber Torres slides over to shortstop in his absence.

Gregorius is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Indians, Coley Harvey of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius will get a breather after starting at shortstop the past two days while going 4-for-8 with a home run in his first pair of games since returning from the 60-day injured list. His absence is merely for maintenance purposes, as Gregorius is still getting his conditioning in order following a long layoff due to Tommy John surgery. Gleyber Torres will shift from the keystone over to shortstop while Gregorius rests.

Gregorius went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs in an 8-4 loss against the Indians on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Playing in just his second game of the season, Gregorius hit his first homer of 2019. He batted only .156 in eight rehab games, but going 4-for-8 with a homer since being activated on June 7 has erased any doubt that Gregorius is ready for action. He should produce plenty in the middle of the Yankees lineup, but owners should expect Gregorius to receive regular off days as he eases back into the lineup.

Gregorius (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius will wind up making a fairly quick return from Tommy John surgery last October. He hit just .156 in eight rehab games but was nevertheless deemed ready to go, as he showed no problems handling his defensive duties. He's expected to be the Yankees' primary shortstop going forward but will require frequent off days early on as he eases back into a regular role. Thairo Estrada was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to clear a spot on the 25-man roster, while Troy Tulowitzki (calf) was transferred to the 60-day injured list to clear a spot on the 40-man.

Gregorius (elbow) is expected to be activated from the 60-day injured list and start Friday's game against the Indians, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius is set to make his long-awaited 2019 debut after undergoing Tommy John surgery in mid-October of last year. The Yankees plan to exercise caution with the 29-year-old shortstop in the early going and plan to sit him down for one game every series. "I don't think I have to tell you guys what a good player he is," manager Aaron Boone said. "I think you guys have seen over the last few years what he's meant to our club in so many ways. To get a player like him back is exciting."

Gregorius (elbow) will be eased back into action once he's activated from the 60-day injured list, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius is on track to join the Yankees in Cleveland on Friday after spending the first two-plus months of the season on the shelf while recovering from Tommy John surgery. Given the length of his absence, the Yankees don't want to overwork the shortstop upon his return; as such, manager Aaron Boone suggested that Gregorius will initially sit out one game per series. It's unclear when the shortstop will reclaim a full workload, or if the Yankees will continue to afford him days off in an effort to keep the likes of Gio Urshela and DJ LeMahieu in the lineup on a more consistent basis.

Gregorius (elbow) has a good chance to return to action for the Yankees' upcoming series in Cleveland which begins next Friday, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reports earlier in the week suggested that Gregorius could return at some point during the Yankees' road trip which runs Tuesday to Sunday. He appears to be tracking toward the back half of that trip, but it remains an encouraging sign that he's considered close to a return.

Manager Aaron Boone said Gregorius (elbow) will "probably" return during the team's upcoming road trip, which begins Tuesday in Toronto and ends June 8 in Cleveland, Sweeny Murti of Sports Radio 66 WFAN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gregorius recently shifted his rehab assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, going 0-for-3 in his first game with the RailRiders on Wednesday. According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, Gregorius will need to play nine innings at shortstop in back-to-back games before the Yankees activate him from the 60-day injured list; it sounds like that could happen as soon as next week, if everything goes as planned.

Manager Aaron Boone said that Gregorius (elbow) will move his rehab assignment from High-A Tampa to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Boone estimated that Gregorius will need "a week or two" of action at Triple-A before the Yankees bring him back from the 60-day injured list, putting the shortstop on track for an early June return. Gregorius has appeared in two games for Tampa, going 0-for-3 while playing seven innings in the field Saturday and then homering as part of a two-hit day Sunday while he served as the designated hitter.
