Florio's Bullpen Report: Stick With Rafael Montero and Jhoan Duran

Giancarlo Stanton Getting Wednesday Off

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Giancarlo Stanton Hits Three-Run Home Run Tuesday

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton went 2-for-4 with a single and a three-run home run in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jays. The sixth-inning, opposite-field shot just cleared the right-field wall for Stanton's seventh HR of the season. The veteran hasn't provided quite as much power as fantasy managers were hoping for […]

Aaron Judge Hits Walk-Off Homer Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge played the hero in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jays, going 2-for-5 with a single, a walk-off three-run home run, and a strikeout.

Luis Severino Turns In Mediocre Start Tuesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino turned in a middling start in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jays.

The 28-year-old hasn't pitched a full season since 2018 but has looked good […]

Aaron Hicks Resting On Monday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is not in the starting lineup on Monday against the Texas Rangers.
