Will Fried’s Game Tonight Spell Disaster for the Rangers?

The Yankees had a tough weekend against the Miami Marlins – not a sentence that I would typically think about writing. However, they did. They lost all three games, and need to figure out some quick fixes without Aaron Judge in the lineup. Baseball isn’t supposed to be a game that has one player making that big of an impact, but he does. The bigger concern has to be that they allowed 13 runs to the Marlins, and nine of them came from guys making their Yankee debut after the trade deadline. I’m sure that it will be fine, but not exactly what they had in mind bringing the dudes over to the squad. We will worry a bit less about the bullpen today as Max Fried takes the mound. He has been reliable for the Yankees this season even if he hasn’t been quite as amazing as he was to start the year. Still, Fried is 9th overall in ERA with a 2.62 mark, and 10th in WHIP at 1.03. Rangers hitters have never seen Fried very well, batting just .167 against him for their careers in 42 total at-bats.
