Tyler Wade on Yankees' bench as they close series with Detroit

New York Yankees second baseman/outfielder Tyler Wade is not starting on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers.

What It Means:

Wade will head to the Yankees' bench after starting the past two contests at second base. Through his first 14 games of big league action, the 22-year-old rookie is just 6-for-44 (.136) with 15 strikeouts (30.6 percent). Ronald Torreyes is starting at second base and batting ninth versus Tigers right-hander Jordan Zimmerman.

numberFire's models project Wade to record a .174 batting average in only 26 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
