Torres gets the lead off spot.
Stanton is back, so is LeMahieu.

I set mt DVR. Couldn't help my self, kept checking the score. Nice job!
Now......It's on to the "easier" schedule as the Yankees sweep the team with the best record in baseball.
EVERY team goes through severe peaks and severe valleys throughout the course of the season, even the best teams, and even the worst teams. And ALL 30 teams lose key players to the Injured List for extended periods of times, or have key players who are less effective than they should be. It is all part of a long 162 game schedule for all 30 teams.
a Harper hopper and it's 'hip hip hoorah'
and let's get the Helsinki outta town
Miracles happen!
Here. We. Go. Again.
I would literally like to see anyone else who is not a position player in this situation. I'd rather see Caleb Ferguson on the mound.
