Wells went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and an RBI double during Monday's 10-4 win over the Royals. Wells tied his season high in RBI on Monday, launching a three-run home run off James McArthur in the seventh inning before tacking on a double in the eighth.

Wells went 1-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Friday's 3-0 win against the Cubs. Wells returned from a two-game absence after taking a hit-by-pitch on the hand Monday. The backstop accounted for the bulk of New York's scoring Friday with a two-run single in the third inning. Now that he's back in action, Wells will likely start behind the plate most of the time when the Yankees face right-handed starters while Jose Trevino is expected to get the call against most southpaws.

Wells (hand) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Rangers. Wells has now missed two starts in a row after being hit on the right hand by a pitch Monday. X-rays came back negative and he is likely aiming for a return Friday versus the Cubs following a team off day Thursday. Jose Trevino will do the catching again for the Yankees in Wednesday's series finale.
