Preview of the Yankees visiting the Twins for a three-game series. The Twins traded away a bunch of their veterans and essentially have a minor league team now. The Yankees should win all three games in this series. The Yankees got what they needed in their 12 games against the playoff teams, winning seven, and…
Will Warren had a big opportunity before him, but he faced a tough challenge in Boston Red Sox Starting Pitcher Garrett Crochet. Crochet is one of the best pitchers in the American League. He may win the Cy Young award. Warren was nervous and allowed six runs in the first inning. That proved to be…
Max Fried and the Yankees defeated the Red Sox today, 5-3. The ace of the Yankees’ pitching staff, Fried, pitched well enough for the Yankees today that they were able to control the potent Red Sox batting order and win the game.

Carlos Rodon again needed to pitch well tonight, and the Yankees needed to hit. The Yankees’ bullpen surrendered nine runs in the seventh inning last night.
