Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Moving into a platoon role
Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
On the bench for a second straight matchup versus a right-hander (Michael McGreevy), Goldschmidt looks like he could be headed for the short side of a platoon at first base with the newly acquired Luis Garcia. Yankees manager Aaron Boone acknowledged as much prior to Monday's contest, telling Bryan Hoch of MLB.com that Goldschmidt is likely to see most of his starts versus left-handed pitching moving forward. Goldschmidt has posted a monstrous .987 OPS in 143 plate appearances versus lefties this season, compared to a .581 OPS across 177 plate appearances versus righties.

The Yankees will give the 38-year-old a breather for the matinee contest after he started 10 straight games while going 7-for-40 (.175) with one home run, two RBI and three runs. Ben Rice will draw the start at first base Sunday, while Amed Rosario slots into the designated hitter spot.

Goldschmidt was responsible for Friday's lone run with a solo homer off Jesus Luzardo in the fourth inning. It was Goldschmidt's 16th home run of the season, which is tied with Jazz Chisholm for third-most on the Yankees behind Ben Rice (30) and Aaron Judge (ribs) (17). Goldschmidt has a .798 OPS with one steal and 43 RBI over 282 plate appearances this season.

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Sitting out first game of day

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Regaining traction in lineup
Goldschmidt will start at first base and bat third in Monday's game against the Pirates.
Goldschmidt looked to be fading into more of a part-time role heading into the All-Star break, but he's now picked up starts -- all against right-handed pitchers -- in three of the Yankees' first four games of the second half. The 38-year-old is still slashing a lowly .143/.189/.257 with a 45.9 percent strikeout rate over 10 games in July, so he'll need to show some improvement to fully solidify himself as a regular in the New York lineup.

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Fading into part-time role
Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
The Yankees will keep Goldschmidt on the bench for the third time in four games, with all three of those absences coming against right-handed pitchers. The recent returns of Trent Grisham (hamstring) and Ryan McMahon (throat/ear) appear to have pushed Goldschmidt into a part-time role, with the 38-year-old's drop in playing time coming while he's fallen into an 0-for-22 skid at the plate over his last seven games.

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Left out of lineup Wednesday
Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.
The Yankees will go with Ben Rice at first base and Amed Rosario at designated hitter in the series finale, leaving no room in the starting nine for Goldschmidt. Though he's been productive on the whole during his age-38 season with an .867 OPS, Goldschmidt has gone 0-for-16 with one walk over the Yankees' last five games.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

The veteran first baseman has now gone 7-for-13 (.538) with four homers in his career versus Skubal, adding to his impressive resume against the reigning two-time Cy Young Award winner. Goldschmidt is turning back the clock in 2026, slashing .297/.355/.568 with 14 homers, eight doubles, 39 RBI and 30 runs over 211 trips to the plate.

Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Continues resurgent season
Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 12-2 win over the White Sox.
Goldschmidt hit one of four Yankees homers in the big win, ripping a two-run shot to left field in the fourth inning. The veteran slugger has helped keep New York's offense humming even without Giancarlo Stanton (calf) and Aaron Judge (ribs), as Goldschmidt's .913 OPS through 46 games ranks second on the club behind only Ben Rice. Goldschmidt has been even better since Judge went down, posting a 1.056 OPS with four homers, 14 RBI and one stolen base over 12 contests this month.
