This was supposed to be a down year for the Yankees. They struggled in 2023 - almost finishing below .500 until a late surge. Aaron Boone was on the ropes. Aaron Judge was cooked. But Brian Cashman did what Boston couldn’t/wouldn’t and traded for a superstar in Juan Soto. When Cole went down it looked like they’d need more help. Well, they added Marcus Stroman. Tonight’s starter Luis Gil was in their scrap heap until Cole went down and is now an ace.
But this Red Sox team just knocked off the Phillies after being humiliated by the Chicago White Sox Can they do it again?
