Yankees News
For the second time in his career, Gerrit Cole faced a reality check after yielding three home runs to the first three batters against the Padres, paving the way for a disappointing 5-1 loss that dropped the Yankees' chances of taking the series. This loss stings, especially as the Yankees are trying to maintain their momentum in a tight playoff race, now sitting at 81-61. With the bullpen potentially getting a boost from Carlos Lagrange, who is progressing toward activation, fans are also holding their breath for Aaron Judge’s return. Despite the worries, the fanbase seems relaxed about Judge skipping a rehab assignment, signaling confidence in his readiness. As the Yankees gear up for their next showdown, they need to shake off this series and capitalize on their run differential, which has been a bright spot even in this turbulent stretch.
