Sitting Saturday
Wells isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.
Analyse
Wells owns just a .284 OPS through 18 plate appearances against lefties this season, so he'll move to the bench Saturday with Noah Cameron on the mound for Kansas City. J.C. Escarra will fill in behind the plate and bat ninth.

Out of Yankees' lineup
Wells is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.
Analyse
Wells was the catcher in each of the first three games of the series, so he'll get a breather in Thursday's finale. J.C. Escarra will be behind the plate and bat ninth for the Yankees.

Not starting Sunday
Wells is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Analyse
It's likely just a maintenance day for Wells, who went 1-for-11 with a solo homer while starting the previous three contests. J.C. Escarra will do the catching Sunday for righty Cam Schlittler.
