With Josh Donaldson and Kendrys Morales both on the DL, it’s allowed for Teoscar Hernandez to come up while Steve Pearce and Curtis Granderson take over as the primary DH. It’s also given super-utility man Yangervis Solarte, who’s off to a great start, a chance to see the field everyday at 3rd base, with Aledmys Diaz at short and Devon Travis at 2nd. That leaves Gift Ngoepe as the only backup middle infielder as opposed to a combo of Travis, Solarte, occasionally Diaz, and Ngoepe on the bench for the middle infield.
