The Yankees suffered a tough loss last night, though they’ve played well of late and have a chance to bounce back tonight. The bullpen is a little short though — Joe Girardi said Dellin Betances is unlikely to be available due to his recent workload — so Chris Capuano is probably going to throw 100+ pitches whether he likes it or not. This would be a good night for the offense to give the pitching staff some breathing room, for once. Here is the Tigers lineup and here is the Yankees lineup:
- LF Brett Gardner
- SS Derek Jeter
- CF Jacoby Ellsbury
- 1B Mark Teixeira
- DH Carlos Beltran
- C Brian McCann
- 3B Chase Headley
- 2B Stephen Drew
- RF Martin Prado
LHP Chris Capuano
It’s warm and cloudy in New York, but there is no rain in the forecast. Tonight’s game is scheduled to start just after 7pm ET and you can watch on YES. Enjoy.
Roster Note: Jeff Francis has officially been released. The Yankees designated him for assignment last week to clear a roster spot when they called up Zoilo Almonte.
