Gregorius is not in the lineup for Monday's series opener against the White Sox, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It looks to be a routine day of rest for Gregorius, who has started the last eight games and is leading the team with a .319 batting average this month. Ronald Torreyes takes over at shortstop in his stead.

Gregorius is not in the lineup Friday against the Athletics, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gregorius is in the midst of a 17-game hit streak in which he's batting .361, but he'll get his first breather in 14 games with lefty Sean Manaea toeing the rubber for Oakland. Ronald Torreyes will take over at shortstop in his place.

Gregorius went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
The first inning home run helped extend Gregorius' hitting streak to 12 straight games, a stretch in which he's racked up five multi-hit efforts. Despite missing the opening month of the season, the 27-year-old hasn't missed a beat, as his .325/.346/.497 slash line represents a career-best across all three categories.

Gregorius (hand) is in the lineup Thursday against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Gregorius had to miss a game with a hand injury, but is ready to return. Since coming off the DL on April 28, Gregorius has enjoyed a strong start to the season as he's built a .307/.336/.439 line over 29 games.

Gregorius (hand) is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Gregorius was optimistic about his chances of playing in the series finale after taking a pitch to the hand Tuesday night, but the Yankees decided it was best for the shortstop to sit this one out. Preliminary X-rays on Gregorius' hand came back negative, so it appears he's only dealing with simple soreness rather than any structural damage to the hand. Nonetheless, his absence from the lineup Wednesday opens up a starting role for Ronald Torreyes.

Gregorius, who was hit on the hand by a pitch in Tuesday's game, said an X-ray cam back negative and he expects to play Wednesday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Even though he did not leave the game, there was apparently some concern from the Yankees after he was hit by the pitch. However, there was no fracture, so he may not end up missing any time. Consider him probable for Wednesday's game.

Gregorius went 2-for-3 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
That's his second home run and third multi-hit performance in the last four games, pushing Gregorius' slash line on the season to .330/.359/.474 through 24 games. The 27-year-old shortstop is just reaching his prime as a hitter, and while his .363 BABIP is well above his career norms he should remain productive as long as he has the short porch in Yankee Stadium to target.

Gregorius went 4-for-4 with an RBI and a run during Sunday's win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
The shortstop is building on his 2016 breakout with a .322/.355/.402 slash line this year. It might be tough for Gregorius to match last season's 20 home runs, but he's still moving the fantasy needle with 14 RBI and 10 runs through 21 games. His batting average is also a huge help in rotisserie settings.

Gregorius went 3-for-4 with his first homer and two RBI in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
A 20-homer man last year, Gregorius had gone 10 games since returning from his season-opening surgery without knocking one out of the yard. He's an interesting hitter because he makes a lot of contact and he had that power surge last season, but it's best to moderate expectations for Gregorius until he shows that he can sustain his currently strong batting average (.313) while maintaining his power stroke.

Gregorius is back in the Yankees' lineup Friday, batting sixth and manning shortstop, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It appears Wednesday's break was only for rest, so fantasy players should throw Gregorius back into their lineups if they can make daily moves.
