Teixeira is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the A's, Wallace Matthews of ESPN New York reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dustin Ackley will take over at first base in place of Teixeira for the first game of the Yankees' four-game set in Oakland. Teixeira has been mired in a bit of a slump over the past two weeks, slashing .167/.184/.229 in that 48 at-bat sample. He figures to rejoin the lineup Friday when the Yankees take on Sonny Gray.
