Yankees Face Red Sox With Aaron Judge Out
The Yankees roll into Fenway Park riding a 2-game winning streak. But they're missing their biggest star. Aaron Judge landed on the injured list with a stress fracture in his rib. He won't be back until late July at the earliest. That's a massive hit to New York's lineup. Will Warren takes the mound for the Yankees tonight. Boston just beat New York 6-3 yesterday. The Red Sox are hungry for another win. This matchup matters big-time for both teams fighting to stay sharp.
Boston's Rotation Battles Through Its Own Injuries
The Red Sox have serious pitching problems. Garrett Crochet, their ace, is still recovering from shoulder and lat strain. He's not throwing yet. Payton Tolle gets the start tonight for Boston. The Red Sox are 32-46 this season with a 3-7 record over their last ten games. They're struggling. New York's record sits at 48-31, much stronger overall. Boston won yesterday 6-3 at home. They'll need Tolle to pitch great to keep that momentum going. The pitching matchup heavily favors the Yankees' depth.
Can the Yankees Win Without Their Cleanup Hitter?
Giancarlo Stanton should return by June 28. Max Fried is throwing again and could pitch in July. Trent Grisham is taking batting practice and working his way back from a hamstring strain. The Yankees have weapons. They're also missing Ryan McMahon at third base due to a throat infection. New York needs to find ways to score without Judge. Yesterday, Jose Caballero blasted a massive home run 400 feet to left-center. Paul Goldschmidt and Amed Rosario are stepping up. Can the bench players keep this team rolling? Tonight tells us plenty about New York's depth and character heading forward.
