Stats Snapshot
Yankees: 48–35; 6–4 (Last 10) Key Trends:
The Yankees are in the midst of a tough 16‑in‑17 stretch, playing mostly teams that are postseason caliber (TOR, NYM, SEA, CHC).
A scout flagged the Yankees for “poor performance from their 4th & 5th starters,” an “unreliable bullpen,” and a heavy reliance on Aaron Judge.
Fundamental lapses — defensive miscues and sloppy play — have crept into their recent games.
Today’s Game Has Implications For…
The Yankees only hold a 1.5 game lead on the Rays in the AL East coming into today, and are only up 3 games on the Blue Jays.
