Yankees first baseman Paul Goldschmidt left Monday's spring game against the Blue Jays due to a sore back after two at-bats. He has been managing this issue for several days but expressed no concern about missing time or being unprepared for Opening Day. Goldschmidt stated he could have continued playing but chose to be cautious. Yankees manager Aaron Boone expects him to return for Wednesday's game. Goldschmidt has performed well this spring, batting .313 with three home runs. Other players also showed strong performances, including Ben Rice and J.C. Escarra, who both hit well. Prospect Yoendrys Gómez continued his impressive spring with nine scoreless innings, increasing his chances of making the Opening Day roster.
