Saunders in not in the lineup Monday against the Yankees after having fluid drained from his knee, Barry Davis of Sportsnet reports.

Analysis:

After a slow start to the season, Saunders has been hitting well of late as he's 4-for-7 with a pair of walks and two RBI in his last two games. Danny Valencia will get the start in left field Monday, but Saunders will be available as a pinch hit option.
