Wells is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
It's left-hander Kyle Freeland toeing the rubber for the Rockies, so the left-handed hitting Wells will yield to Jose Trevino at catcher. Since Trevino returned from the injured list last week, he has garnered four starts to Wells' three, although the Yankees have faced just two traditional righties over that span (they also faced one righty opener).
