Yankees News

Aaron Judge’s calf injury is now a significant concern for the Yankees, as the team has placed their star outfielder on the injured list in hopes of a postseason return. This setback casts a shadow over the Yankees’ recent momentum, which saw them trounce the Diamondbacks 9-2 just yesterday. Despite this loss of firepower, the Yankees have managed a solid 5-2 stretch over the last week, boasting a +12 run differential. However, the walk-off loss to the D-backs last night serves as a reminder of how quickly fortunes can change. As Cam Schlittler takes the mound for the next matchup, the team’s playoff aspirations hinge on finding a way to maintain their winning ways without their captain. With the Rays faltering, the Yankees need every ounce of grit to capitalize on their current position.

Yankees lose to Diamondbacks in walk-off fashion

One would figure that with Cam Schlittler going on Saturday night, this would be the game for the Yankees to win if they had any hope for a last-ditch AL East comeback, but something about Arizona wore down the likely Cy Young Award winner tonight.
