Gets third straight start Odor will start at second base and bat sixth Wednesday against the Rays.

Impact Luke Voit's (oblique) recent move to the injured list looks as though it will reopen regular work for Odor. DJ LeMahieu will make his second start in three games at first base, opening up the keystone once again for Odor, who is in the lineup for the third game in a row.

Slaps fifth homer in four-hit game Odor went 4-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Tigers.

Impact Despite the Yankees' offensive team struggles, Odor had his best night at the plate this season. He added three singles on top of his solo home run off Casey Mize to lead off the fifth inning. Friday was only his third multi-hit game this season, with the other two being two-hit games. The 27-year-old's average jumped from .160 to .198 after his four-hit game, and he is slashing .198/.296/.395 in 98 plate appearances. He is batting just .219 over his last five seasons.

Sitting Sunday Odor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact With southpaw Dallas Keuchel on the hill for the White Sox, the lefty hitting Odor will take a seat after starting each of the past three games. DJ LeMahieu takes over at second base for Odor, who is sitting on a meager .622 OPS through 86 plate appearances on the season. The Yankees are expected to get everyday designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (quadriceps) back from the injured list as soon as this week, and his return could create a domino effect that results on Odor losing out on regular at-bats.

Impact The move comes just one day after Odor was activated from the injured list and went 2-for-5 against the Rangers on Tuesday. It's unclear how many games Odor will miss.

Tallies two hits in return Odor went 2-for-5 with a double and two strikeouts Tuesday in a win over Texas.

Impact Odor was activated from the injured list early Tuesday and was immediately inserted into the starting lineup. He played the entire game at second base and collected one of the Yankees' four doubles. Odor is batting only .182 this season, but he has contributed four homers and 11 RBI across 75 plate appearances.

Yankees activate lefty slugger Rougned Odor from 10-day IL The oh-so-righthanded Yankees got a left-handed hitter back from the Injured List Tuesday when they activated second baseman Rougned Odor.

MAY 18, 2021 • MCALL.COM

Activated from injured list Odor (knee) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Impact Odor served as a regular starter before spraining his knee in early May, but there probably aren't everyday at-bats available for him now with Luke Voit back in action at first base, pushing DJ LeMahieu to second. Odor did nothing to earn an everyday role during his 70 plate appearances prior to the injury, hitting just .164/.271/.361. He did cut his strikeout rate dramatically from 31.8 percent last season to 14.3 percent this year, however, which offers some hope for the future once his .128 BABIP rises to a more normal level.
