All-Star Yandy Díaz has been positioned on the paternity listing by the Tampa Bay Rays, who anticipate the primary baseman to overlook at the very least one recreation of a weekend’s collection at Kansas City.
Diaz, who homered throughout Tuesday evening’s All-Star recreation in Seattle, grew to become a father for the primary time on Wednesday. His spouse, Mayisleidis, initially was scheduled to have the newborn on Monday. However, the plan was modified to permit him to journey throughout the nation to make his first All-Star look.
Díaz flew into Seattle late Monday. He homered within the second inning of the American League’s 3-2 loss on Tuesday evening, then returned residence on a redeye flight to be along with his spouse for the beginning of their son.
At a minimal, Díaz will miss Friday evening’s collection opener in opposition to the Royals. The Rays recalled infielder Jonathan Aranda from Triple-A Durham to fill the roster spot.
