White Sox Bring Young Arm to the Bronx
Davis Martin takes the mound for Chicago as the White Sox head to Yankee Stadium. Martin's been sharp early in the season, sitting with a 2.45 ERA and posting strong numbers through his starts. The White Sox are riding a one-game winning streak and have won six of their last ten games. Chicago's pitching staff is still young and developing, but Martin's consistency gives the team hope. The White Sox will need Martin to keep the Yankees' lineup under control in this matchup.
Yankees' Ace Cole Faces Injury-Hit Roster
Gerrit Cole takes the mound for New York as the Yankees prepare to host Chicago. The Yankees are 43-27 on the season and have won their last two games. New York's been dominant at home, sitting at 19-12. Cole is back after missing last season with injury, and he anchors a strong pitching staff. The Yankees have Max Fried as their ace and Carlos Rodón rounding out their rotation. However, New York's batting lineup is thin right now with Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton both sidelined.
Matchup Shape by Missing Stars
Both teams are dealing with major injuries heading into this battle. The White Sox lost first baseman Munetaka Murakami to a hamstring strain and will be without him for weeks. The Yankees are missing Aaron Judge, their superstar right fielder, due to a rib stress fracture. Judge could be out through late July. Giancarlo Stanton is also dealing with a calf injury. These absences will shape how both lineups look on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium.
