Tampa Bay Rays infielder Yandy Diaz (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Tanner Houck and the Boston Red Sox.
Diaz is sidelined after leaving Sunday's game early with a hamstring issue. Jonathan Aranda will replace Diaz on first base and in the leadoff spot.
