Everson Pereira Stats

New York Yankees outfielder Everson Pereira (hamstring) remains absent from Thursday's lineup for the series finale versus the Toronto Blue Jays. The 22-year-old hasn't been seen in the lineup since last Thursday's doubleheader against the Boston Red Sox due to a low-grade hamstring strain. Pereira sustained the injury during that series when he slipped on the wet dugout steps at Fenway Park. The No. 3 Yankees prospect is unfortunately losing out on some valuable opportunity in center field in wake of Jasson Dominguez's (elbow) UCL surgery. In the meantime, Estevan Florial patrols center and hits seventh against right-hander Jose Berrios on Thursday.

New York Yankees rookie outfielder Everson Pereira (hamstring) is set to miss yet another game on Tuesday against the visiting Toronto Blue Jays. In his absence, Oswaldo Cabrera is making another start in left field and will be in the nine-hole against Blue Jays left-hander Yusei Kikuchi. Pereira, one of the team's top prospects, made his MLB debut on Aug. 22 but hasn't played since Sept. 14 because of his hamstring injury, and manager Aaron Boone acknowledged that the injury could send the youngster to the injured list. With just under two weeks left in the 2023 season, Pereira may have played his last game this year. The 22-year-old Venezuelan has also struggled in his first 70 big-league at-bats, going 10-for-70 (.143) with no homers, seven RBI, four steals and six runs scored.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that rookie outfielder Everson Pereira (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring injury that could land him on the 10-day injured list. Pereira, the team's No. 3 prospect per MLB Pipeline, has also struggled in his first 21 major-league games, going 10-for-70 (.143) with no homers, three doubles, seven RBI, four stolen bases, 31 strikeouts and six runs scored. An injured-list stint would probably mean the end of Pereira's 2023 season with just under two weeks left for the Yankees. The 22-year-old hasn't played in a game since last Thursday, opening up more playing time in New York's outfielder for Oswaldo Cabrera.
