It is expected that New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit will return from the IL on Friday to face the Toronto Blue Jays to help kick off a long homestand. He landed on the IL with an abdominal strain suffered in the series against the Boston Red Sox in London.
Voit was batting .280 in 293 at-bats prior to landing on the IL. He has 17 home runs, 50 RBIs, an OBP of almost .400 and a slugging of just over .500 in 2019.
The right handed power hitter was also nine for his last 16 before injuring himself, including four hits in four tries against Boston in the game that he eventually was injured in.
