Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano is back in the lineup on Monday for a matchup in New York against his former Yankees team, according to the Mariners' Twitter account.

The $240 million man missed the past four games with a stomach virus and a bone bruise in his left hand. He's hitting .327 with a .371 on-base percentage this season for Seattle but has just two home runs in the past 205 at-bats.

In his five seasons with the Yankees, Cano hit a combined .314 with a .369 on-base percentage.
