In theory, for a team that needs to win three straight games to extend its season, the Yankees should have a shot with Max Fried, Carlos Rodón and Cam Schlittler in line to start.
The New York Yankees face elimination trailing 2-0 against the Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS ahead of Game 3 on Wednesday. Greg Joyce writes that completing a comeback will require significantly improved defense and better offensive execution behind starting pitcher Max Fried. Manager Aaron Boone indicated he is considering lineup adjustments to spark the bats after committing four errors in Game 2.
Outside of Ben Rice and Austin Wells, the rest of the Yankees lineup is a combined 1-for-46 in the series against Tampa Bay. Joyce highlights that defensive miscues and baserunning errors have continuously undermined the club, forcing New York to seek cleaner overall execution to extend their postseason run.
