This suggests that Kansas City is comfortable with him at the bottom of the lineup, even against a tough starter like Gerrit Cole.
Isbel is also staying in center field, indicating that the Royals value his defense there. With Cole on the mound, Isbel might not see many opportunities to hit, but his position in the lineup and on the field shows the Royals’ strategy against the Yankees.
