Adley Rutschman will begin the day on the bench with Samuel Basallo handling the catching and Taylor Ward getting a day as the DH. Dylan Beavers, Colton Cowser, and Leody Taveras will handle the outfield duties.
Coby Mayo will return to third base, and Jackson Holliday will head to second. Pete Alonso and Gunnar Henderson will take their usual spots at first base and shortstop.
