Around the Empire: Yankees news - 4/16/23

NJ.com | Randy Miller: The Yankees had a firm hold on the second game against the Twins after Anthony Volpe hit his first career home run, and Aaron Judge hit one right after to make it 2-0 early. Nestor Cortes pitched seven innings over 93 pitches, and Clay Holmes came in to “face [the Twins’] best righties,” according to Aaron Boone. But as we saw during stretches last season, Holmes was erratic and cost New York the game. So, the question comes again: Can the Yankees eventually trust Holmes to be a playoff closer, or do they have to look somewhere else for a different answer?
