The New York Yankees may have met their game in the Rays


This has been a bad week for the Yankees.

They lost Aaron Judge, DJ LeMahieu and Zack Britton to the injured list last week, dropped five straight games to the Rays – including Thursday’s 10-5 defeat to close out a three-game game at home – and dropped out first place in the AL East.

As if that wasn’t enough, star shortstop Gleyber Torres left Thursday’s game in the third inning with tightness from left hamstring and starting pitcher James Paxton in the fifth frame with injuries to his forearm and elbow. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
