Cespedes (hip) was scratched from Friday's lineup because he felt something in his right shoulder making a throw Thursday though the injury isn't believed to be serious, Adam Rubin of ESPN New York reports.

Anytime you hear an outfielder felt something in his shoulder from making a throw, yellow flags go up. Cespedes won't play Saturday and has about a week to heal before Opening Day. Juan Lagares got the start Friday and if Cespedes is unable to throw immediately, he could be the designated hitter the first two games of the season with New York facing the Royals in Kansas City.
