  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Homers in win

    Diaz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Yankees.

    Diaz has just three homers in his last 47 games after hitting 12 in his first 43 contests. Still, the 31-year-old first baseman has been productive with the bat, going 22-for-63 (.349) over his last 16 games. Diaz is now slashing .317/.402/.509 with 63 runs scored and 52 RBI across 396 plate appearances this season.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Still bothered by injury

    Diaz (groin) returned to the lineup Friday but said he is still sore when he runs, swings and plays defense, MLB.com reports.

    Diaz missed only one full game with the injury and returned as the DH on Friday, when he went 0-for-3 with an RBI. Manager Kevin Cash hopes his first baseman will return to playing the field Saturday, but the skipper also noted the injury will require management for the rest of the season. Diaz has been one of the Rays' better hitters this season, so the team certainly won't want to keep him out of the lineup, but his recovery may ultimately dictate extra days off down the stretch.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Will return as DH

    Diaz (groin) will return to the lineup Friday at designated hitter, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Diaz tweaked his left groin during Tuesday's game versus the Marlins and then sat out Wednesday. An MRI didn't reveal anything serious, though, and he's at least ready to hit Friday following Thursday's off day. Diaz is sporting a .391 OBP since June 1, but his early-season power binge has mostly evaporated as he's hit only two home runs since that date.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Encouraging MRI results

    Rays manager Kevin Cash said Wednesday that the MRI results on Diaz's left groin were encouraging, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Diaz didn't play in Wednesday's loss to the Marlins after exiting Tuesday's game with groin tightness. While it's not clear when he might be ready to return to the lineup, it appears he will be able to avoid the injured list for the time being. Diaz dealt with a left groin issue earlier this season as well but didn't require an IL stint at that time.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Out Wednesday, getting MRI

    Diaz (groin) is out of the lineup for the Rays' series finale with the Marlins and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Wednesday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Diaz will get examined after he exited Tuesday's 4-1 win with left groin tightness. According to Whitaker, manager Kevin Cash said that Diaz woke up Wednesday feeling no worse than Tuesday, so the Rays are optimistic that the 31-year-old won't have to go on the injured list as a result of the groin issue. Luke Raley will replace him at first base and will bat cleanup Wednesday.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Battling groin tightness

    Diaz was pulled from Tuesday's game against the Marlins with left groin tightness, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    After extending to catch a throw to first base, Diaz was removed from the game in the third inning and walked off with a noticeable limp. He's now officially listed as day-to-day with a groin injury and will be re-evaluated Wednesday. The 31-year-old infielder is slashing .321/.387/.482 since July 1.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Exits with limp Tuesday

    Diaz was removed from Tuesday's game against Miami with an apparent injury, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    After making a diving play at first base, Diaz had to be pulled from the game early. The Rays haven't released any details yet, but the fact Diaz was limping off the field indicates he injured either his leg or his hip. More information should come soon, but fantasy managers should consider Diaz day-to-day until then.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Hits two-run blast

    Diaz went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's loss to the Orioles.

    Diaz took Tyler Wells deep to left center in the fifth to knot the game up 3-3. He did not hit a home run at all in June but now has two home runs this month and is up to 14 on the year, which ties the career high he set back in 2019. Diaz's power is not something fantasy managers should be reliant on, though he continues to be a strong offensive contributor, slashing .317/.401/.505 with 47 RBI, 60 runs and a 42:62 BB:K in 372 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Back from paternity list

    Diaz (personal) was reinstated from the paternity list Monday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Diaz will be back with the Rays as they head to Texas for a three-game series with the Rangers. The 31-year-old will look to pick up where he left off prior to the All-Star break, going 9-for-16 with a homer, a double, four RBI and two runs scored over his last four games. Jonathan Aranda was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Monday to open a roster spot for the returning Diaz.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Goes on paternity leave

    Diaz was placed on the paternity leave list Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Diaz -- who welcomed new baby boy Yandy Jr. on Wednesday -- will miss at least Friday's game in Kansas City but is expected back either Saturday or Sunday, per Topkin. Jonathan Aranda will be recalled to take his spot on the Rays' roster.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Homers, drives in four

    Diaz went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, four RBI and two runs in Sunday's 10-4 win against Atlanta.

    The 31-year-old delivered his third straight multi-hit effort versus Atlanta, though he didn't have any extra-base hits or run production in the first two games of the series. The home run ends a 34-game span without a long ball for Diaz, though he still provided plenty of value atop the lineup during that stretch with a .301 average and .367 OBP.
