Pereira (hamstring) will start in left field and bat ninth Monday against the Diamondbacks.
Pereira will be making his first start since Sept. 14 after missing the past week and a half with a nagging hamstring injury. With rain in the forecast for New York on Monday, Pereira could be at risk of being scratched from the contest, but for now, the 22-year-old looks like he'll stick in the lineup. The rookie is batting just .143 with no home runs and four stolen bases in 21 games since being called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Aug. 22.
