Ellsbury went 3-for-5 with one RBI in Sunday's win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

He's still slashing just .176/.200/.176 in the month of September, but Ellsbury has now collected seven hits -- all singles -- in his last four games, so he may be breaking out of his prolonged slump. The 32-year-old also added a stolen base Sunday, just his second steal since Aug. 24.

Ellsbury is not in the lineup for the opening game of the Subway Series on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ellsbury had played in seven consecutive games, but will get the night off with lefty Steven Matz on the mound for the Mets. Chris Young, hitting clean up for the Yankees, will get the start in left field with Brett Gardner sliding over to center field.

Ellsbury (illness) is back in the lineup Sunday against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Ellsbury was held out of Saturday's lineup due to flu-like symptoms, but still ended up logging two at-bats after he was able to come off the bench. As expected, he now appears ready to play a full contest, as he'll patrol center field and hit leadoff for the Yankees in the series finale.

Ellsbury (flu-like symptoms) is not in the lineup Friday, MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reports.

EDGE Analysis

He should be available off the bench, according to manager Joe Girardi. Chris Young takes Ellsbury's spot in the lineup and Brett Gardner will shift to center field.

Ellsbury (illness) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against the Rays, Newsday's Erik Boland reports.

EDGE Analysis

The center fielder left Friday's game after four innings with an upset stomach and apparently more flu-like symptoms followed for Ellsbury. New York figures to put Brett Gardner in center and play Chris Young in left if Ellsbury can't go, as it did Friday, with left-hander Matt Moore due up for Tampa Bay.

Ellsbury is out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Red Sox, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

With a lefty on the mound, Chris Young gets the start in left field and Brett Gardner slides over to center field to cover for Ellsbury. It's unclear as to whether Ellsbury is injured or just getting the day off, but he's been dealing with a variety of minor ailments and this could be a maintenance day for the 31-year-old.

Ellsbury smacked his seventh homer of the season, drove in three runs, and scored twice in Sunday's 20-6 thrashing of the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Ellsbury led the charge from the top of the order as Yankees laid siege to Braves starter Julio Teheran and the relief corps. The outfielder has enjoyed a minor renaissance as a power hitter of late with four homers in August, but his diminishing prowess on the basepaths (17-for-25 stolen-base success rate this season) and propensity for injury is likely to lower his fantasy stock heading into 2016.

Ellsbury (hip) is back in the lineup Friday against the Braves, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ellsbury sat of out Wednesday's contest as he was dealing with a sore hip, and though manager Joe Girardi was initially hesitant to say he'd be ready by Friday, the issue now appears to be behind the 32-year-old. He'll assume his usual duties in center field and atop the lineup.

Ellsbury is out of Wednesday's lineup with a sore hip, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Joe Girardi indicated that he's not sure if Ellsbury will be available at all Wednesday, and said he's unsure whether he'll be okay to play Friday either. The Yankees will use an alignment of Chris Young in left field, Brett Gardner in center field and Carlos Beltran in right field in his absence.
