NY Yankees @ Boston Red Sox Sept. 18-20

Agree. I guess they are going with the hot bats?

I had read they would use the same schedule with Judge that they were using with Stanton: 1 game in, 1 out, 2 in, 1 out, 3 in, 1 out to have them both ready for the playoff unless a problem arose. Hope this doesn't mean he's got a problem already. If he's not in tomorrow's lineup, then there must be a problem.

We will find out tomorrow I guess

Yep!

no judge that concerns me like i said the other day he was running 60% to first after all that time off he is clearly not feeling well..

The manager said they would be resting Stanton, Judge, and Torres every other game or so. So one game Stanton one game Judge. Until the playoffs. My problem is why rest Higgy after 3 homers the other night. He earned an other start.

Agrred on Higgy!

But won’t tonight’s game be the second consecutive game without judge?

exactly if judge not playing this is his second game in a row off..

Better pitching then. Now???

Right now I say their pitching is still good since despite winning 8 in a row the yanks only made up about 2 or 3 games in the standings with Tampa .

I believe they had made up 4games over the first seven wins to get within 3, but TBs dh win last night increased it back up to 3.5. Going to be really tough to make up that on just 10 games, especially with TB holding the tie breaker. More realistic, pass Minnesota to hold the #4 seed to get the first set of games in YS.

Glad to see Judge did start, even if he did K (again); guess it will take him a bit longer to get back in the swing of things than it did Stanton.

It’s 3 games that the yanks made up on Tampa during the 8 game winning streak . Tampa is 5-5 in their last 10 and the yanks have been 8-2 in that same period , a difference of 3 games

Umpire is giving the Red Sox pitcher a wide strike zone .

[Posada20]

3-0 Red Sox , Monty is not doing well at all

[Posada20]

Monty has nothing tonight.....
