To sell or not to sell? That is the question the Yankees are facing with two weeks and two days left until the trade deadline. I’m not sure what’s taking so long to make this decision, but it is what it is. This is the second of 13 games against contending teams to open to second half, so chances are this stretch of games will determine the team’s course of action at the deadline. I guess we’ll see. Here’s the Red Sox’s lineup and here is the Yankees’ lineup:
- LF Brett Gardner
- CF Jacoby Ellsbury
- RF Carlos Beltran
- DH Alex Rodriguez
- C Brian McCann
- 1B Mark Teixeira
- SS Didi Gregorius
- 2B Starlin Castro
- 3B Chase Headley
LHP CC Sabathia
Gee willikers is it hot outside. Hot and humid. The kind of day where you stick to the stadium seats. There’s a little bit of rain in the forecast throughout the afternoon and evening, though hopefully not anything that will interrupt the game. This afternoon’s game will begin at 4:05pm ET and you can watch on YES locally and FOX Sports 1 nationally. Enjoy.
Rotation Update: Ivan Nova will start Monday and Nathan Eovaldi, who threw 21 pitches in relief last night, will start Tuesday, Joe Girardi announced yesterday. Seems like Chad Green will have to wait for his next big league start.
Injury Update: Chris Parmelee (hamstring) ran the bases pretty hard today and seems close to a return. Of course, the Yankees have no place to put him, so chances are he’s coming back only to get designated for assignment.
