Lewis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Detroit.

Lewis has gone 3-for-9 with a double and a homer in two games since being reinstated from the injured list Friday, and he'll receive a breather for Sunday's series finale. The 25-year-old has played in just 26 contests this year due to injuries, and manager Rocco Baldelli may attempt to keep him fresh with regular days off down the stretch. Jose Miranda will handle the hot corner Sunday while Ryan Jeffers rests his legs as the designated hitter.

Urshela is absent from the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Twins, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Urshela went 1-for-8 with three strikeouts over the first two games of the series, and he will begin Sunday's contest in the dugout. Zach McKinstry will start at third base and bat seventh against Minnesota right-hander Bailey Ober.

Bregman went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run in Saturday's 7-6 win against the Dodgers.

Bregman was hitless through four at-bats when he came to the plate in the top of the ninth inning, but he made the most of his final plate appearance by swatting a walk-off solo blast to left field. The homer was the second in as many days for the third baseman and extended his modest hitting streak to five games. Bregman has been quite productive for most of July, as he's reached base safely in 18 of his past 19 contests and is batting .293 with five homers, 14 RBI, 14 runs and a stolen base over that span.

Cabrera went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 11-8 extra-inning win over the Red Sox.

Cabrera went deep in the second inning for the Yankees' third homer of the game. While he came up short of a fourth multi-hit effort in five games, the homer was Cabrera's first since June 9. The 25-year-old is slashing .246/.290/.352 with six homers, 30 RBI, 35 runs scored and three stolen bases over 256 plate appearances while picking up playing time at second base and third base. With the Yankees' trade for Jazz Chisholm on Saturday, Cabrera's likely to see a dip in usage, though he could fend that off by staying warm at the plate.

Lewis went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Saturday's loss to the Tigers.

Lewis was reinstated from the injured list Friday, and it took him six at-bats to hit another long ball. He now has 11 home runs in 26 games this season and 26 homers in 84 games dating back to last season. The 25-year-old's struggles staying on the field are well documented, but when he's active, he's a must-start. Lewis has homered every 12 at-bats over the last two seasons, which only trails Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani in that span among players with a minimum of 200 at-bats.

Berti (calf) ran and performed other baseball activities Friday, but he's not yet back up to full speed, per MLB.com.

Berti has been on the shelf with a left calf strain since late May. He resumed running at approximately 95 percent prior to the All-Star break, then had a setback and was given a PRP injection. Though he's back to being able to run, Berti isn't likely to begin a minor-league rehab assignment until he's up to full speed. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said July 22 that it's "going to be a little bit of time" before Berti is ready to return, though a clear timeline hasn't been shared.

The Red Sox traded Coffey, infielder Eddinson Paulino and right-hander Gilberto Batista to the Blue Jays on Saturday in exchange for catcher Danny Jansen, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Coffey was selected with the 41st overall pick in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft and has put together a .234/.321/.460 slash line with 14 home runs, 39 runs and 45 RBI in 271 plate appearances at High-A this season. Additionally, he's swiped eight bags in 10 attempts.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

Rendon will get the night off Saturday after starting back-to-back games. The 34-year-old will hand over DH duties to Willie Calhoun, who'll hit cleanup. Rendon owns a .562 OPS through 142 plate appearances this season.

LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

LeMahieu will sit for a second straight game. He pinch hit for Ben Rice in Friday's 9-7 loss to Boston, striking out in his lone plate appearance in the ninth inning. Oswaldo Cabrera will start at third base Saturday and bat ninth against Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello.

Westburg is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres.

Westburg will get a breather Saturday after going 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Friday's 6-4 loss to San Diego. Connor Norby will get the start at second base Saturday and bat eighth against Padres right-hander Michael King.
