The regular season wrapped up on Wednesday with 16 final games and everyone getting a bit of afternoon baseball. There was nothing really to play for other than pride, as not only had all 12 playoff teams clinched, but all were also locked into their seed and position in the bracket.
That means there isn’t a ton we can read into with yesterday’s results, with plenty of teams resting players ahead of their playoff runs. The Yankees were one of those teams, giving Aaron Judge the day off in their 4-2 loss to the Rangers after his milestone home run on Tuesday night.
