Yankees' Ryan McMahon: Sitting out against southpaw
Rotowire
McMahon is not in the lineup Tuesday for Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series against the Red Sox.
With tough southpaw Garrett Crochet on the hill for the Red Sox, the lefty-swinging McMahon will grab a seat. Jose Caballero will play third base and bat ninth for the Yankees.
McMahon went 2-for-3 wit ha solo home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Orioles.
The third baseman took Tomoyuki Sugano deep in the second inning, one of three early homers by the Yankees as they take the battle for the AL East title with the Blue Jays right down to the wire. McMahon's long ball was just his fourth in 53 games in pinstripes but his 20th of the season, the fifth straight season he's reached that milestone and the sixth time overall in his career.

Yankees' Ryan McMahon: Hits first home homer as Yankee
Rotowire
McMahon went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run against Washington in an 11-2 win Wednesday.
On a day when New York hit six long balls as a team, McMahon got in on the action with a three-run blast in the third inning. It was just the second homer McMahon has hit across 28 contests since being dealt to the Yankees on July 25, and this was his first one at home. The veteran third baseman hasn't done much with the bat since the trade, as he's posted a .649 OPS with a 32.0 percent strikeout rate during that 28-game stretch, though he's walked at a healthy 12.0 percent rate.

McMahon went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in a 12-8 win against St. Louis on Saturday
McMahon extended New York's lead to three runs with his seventh-inning blast. The long ball was the veteran third baseman's first since he was traded from Colorado to the Yankees in late July.

Though he'll be taking a seat Monday while left-hander Patrick Corbin toes the rubber for the Rangers, the left-handed-hitting McMahon won't necessarily be used as a strict platoon player.
