“Can the Diamondbacks’ Dynamic Duo Topple the Yankees and Secure an Unlikely Sweep?”

The Yankees made a bunch of noise in their first three games because the ball was flying off of their bats. I’m not going to spend a ridiculous amount of time talking about the torpedo bats again. However, the Yankees are one of those teams that everyone loves to hate and gets all the attention regardless of what they do. Losing Juan Soto over the summer certainly hurt their lineup, but through five games they seem fine. Aaron Judge looks like a monster, as usual, with four homers, 11 RBIs, and a .368 batting average. They still have been pretty good over the past two games in terms of offense – scoring eight runs in the two games against the Diamondbacks. Their pitching hasn’t really been crisp right now. Carlos Carrasco his toeing the rubber today for the Yankees and his first appearance in pinstripes did not go well. He allowed three earned runs in two innings on five hits. I’m not sure if he will be a starter or a reliever for the season, but probably a swing man. He has been pretty good against the Diamondbacks with just 15 hits allowed in 67 at-bats.
