What happened: Yankees manager Aaron Boone announced that outfielder Trent Grisham is expected to be sidelined for "a few weeks" due to a hamstring strain. The update follows Grisham's placement on the 10-day injured list on June 13.

Why it matters: The Yankees currently hold a narrow 1.5-game lead in the AL East and are relying on their depth to maintain momentum. The team recently activated Jasson Domínguez, who is expected to see increased playing time in the outfield during Grisham's absence.

By the numbers: New York Yankees: 43–27 (1st in AL East). Division Lead: 1.5 GB Tampa Bay Rays. Last 6 Games: 5–1.

What to watch: The Yankees begin a home series against the Chicago White Sox today as they look to extend their division lead.
