Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Ben Rice will get the nod at first base Sunday, but Goldschmidt had occupied the position in five of the past six matchups -- all against right-handed pitchers. Though Rice has been far more productive against righties among the two players this season, Goldschmidt's longer track record of success in the big leagues has at least temporarily prevented him from falling into a pure short-side platoon role. Goldschmidt is slashing just .200/.256/.250 with a 37.2 percent strikeout rate since the All-Star break, however, and it's unclear how much patience manager Aaron Boone will exercise with the 37-year-old if he continues to languish.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt has faded into more of a part-time role of late, as he'll hit the bench for the fourth time in the Yankees' last seven matchups with a right-handed starting pitcher. Ben Rice will get the call at first base Wednesday while the Rays send righty Zack Littell to the hill.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt will be on the bench for the third time in the Yankees' last four matchups with a right-handed starting pitcher (Zack Wheeler). For the season, Goldschmidt is slashing just .246/.292/.332 in 276 plate appearances against righties, and he could continue to cede more starts in those matchups to Ben Rice, who has produced a 131 wRC+ versus righties.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

For the second day in a row, the right-handed-hitting Goldschmidt will give way to the left-handed-hitting Ben Rice at first base and head to the bench while the Blue Jays send another righty (Chris Bassitt) to the bump. Though the Yankees won't completely close the door on having Goldschmidt play versus righties, he may have to settle for more of a part-time role in those matchups since he's produced a weak .246/.290/.333 (75 wRC+) over 271 plate appearances against them so far this season.

Goldschmidt is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt went 3-for-4 with a double, two runs and two RBI in a 10-3 win against Seattle on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt scored New York's first run of the game in the fifth inning and stroked a two-run single in the seventh. He notched his fourth multi-hit performance over his past five contests, a span during which he's batting .391 with five doubles. The hot stretch comes on the heels of a rough 1-for-23 stretch to end the month of June. On the season, Goldschmidt is slashing .290/.349/.435 with eight homers, 34 RBI, 54 runs and five stolen bases over 347 plate appearances.

Goldschmidt isn't starting against the Mets on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt is beginning on the bench for the second time in New York's past three contests amidst the team's five-game losing streak. The veteran first baseman has four hits (including three doubles) over his past three appearances, but the Yankees are going with Cody Bellinger at first base Saturday, while Ben Rice is occupying the DH spot.

Goldschmidt is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Toronto.

EDGE Analysis
