Merrifield is not in the starting lineup Friday against the Yankees.

Merrifield will take a seat after he extended his hit streak to seven games Wednesday, going 11-for-27 with three doubles, five RBI, four runs scored and two stolen bases over those contests. Cavan Biggio will draw the start at second base and bat eighth in the series opener with righty Domingo German on the mound for New York.
