Amid a selected droop in a droop of a season, Gleyber Torres is getting a day without work.
The Yankees’ on a regular basis second baseman was out of the lineup for Wednesday’s Subway Sequence finale at Citi Discipline, during which Oswaldo Cabrera stepped in at second and DJ LeMahieu began at third.
Torres is 2-for-29 in his previous 9 video games and had an particularly poor day Tuesday, when he struggled in each side and was known as into supervisor’s Aaron Boone’s workplace after the 9-7 loss to the Mets.
At a time when the Yankees are with out Giancarlo Stanton and Anthony Rizzo — and wish extra from gamers like Torres — Torres went 0-for-4 with a stroll whereas hanging out with nobody out and the bases loaded within the first inning.
His fielding was an issue, too, committing his twelfth error — essentially the most by any second baseman — on a pointy floor ball from Brandon Nimmo that allowed a run.
Torres’ legs have been a difficulty as nicely. He didn’t run out a smooth floor ball hit to Francisco Lindor within the eighth inning, simply thrown out on a play that may have been shut in any other case.

After the sport, Torres stated his groin — which compelled him from a sport final week — was feeling tight.
It was instantly unclear whether or not Torres’ day without work was extra due to the groin or due to his play of late.
The Yankees have been set to face Sean Manaea, a lefty the righty-hitting Torres usually would line up nicely towards.
