The Yankee lineup today. Ben Rice leads off at first. Jason Dominguez bat second and right. Cody Bellinger is the left fielder back in the lineup. We'll bat third. Amid Rosario is the DH. He'll clean up. Jazz Chisholm is back in the lineup. Circle that, star it. He's batting fifth at second base. If jazz struggles the next couple weeks, just remember how the Yankees have handled certain things in the past, including that Anthony Rizzo concussion, I'm a little

concerned that Jazz is right back in the lineup, but he's batting fifth. Hopefully, it's nothing and he's fine, and he's healthy, and he rakes because the Yankees need nothing more. Anthony Volpey, the shortstop batts sixth. Austin Wells is to catch a batting seventh. Like, in what world can Austin Wells be batting anywhere but ninth in a Yankee lineup?

I guess this one. Bad sixth. Austin Wells is to catch your batting seventh. Like in what world can Austin Wells be batting anywhere but ninth in a Yankee lineup?

I guess this one.

Jose Caballero is the center fielder batting eighth, which is fascinating.

Bellinger in left, Caballero and center.

And Oswaldo Cabrera is the third baseman betting ninth.

Now, where is Spencer Jones, you might be asking?

Spencer Jones is out of the lineup today with food poisoning, according to Aaron Boone.

Also, on his AAA rehab assignment ahead of his return on Friday, Ryan McMahon is out of the lineup today with the same kind of food poisoning illness. Why do I think this is important? Well, today as I was scrolling on my train ride in, all right, what are we going to talk about? What are we going to talk about? Of course, I get drawn in by a headline, and this maybe feels more morning show. But this was the headline, one of the three main stories on the New York Post this morning. Mystery of explosive diarrhea parasite outbreak in the U.S.

as experts try to figure out what's causing it.

And apparently there's been a stomach churning parasite that's kind of been linked to food poisoning.

According to the CDC, 145 people ranging in ages 5 to 86 years old in 20 states.

Contracted the parasite cyclospora.

Something else, another word I'm not going to attempt to say.

Between May and June 16th, 20 were hospitalized.

This is still going on.

The highest number of cases happen to be in New York State.

Now, does that mean that's what Spencer Jones and Ryan McMahon have?

No, but I do find it a little ironic that there's an unknown stomach bug that is firing off in the United States right now, and now suddenly Spencer Jones and Ryan McMahon in separate

places are both out of separate lineups with food poisoning.

And obviously you want these guys to be healthy and fine.
