Game 65: LAD (39-25) vs NYY (45-19)

---

Soto -- has "inflammation" in forearm and no structural damage to elbow ----- for now.

Grisham gets 2nd straight start in CF.

Verdugo bats 2nd

Yankee lineup is definitely shorter!!

While this series is being billed as a possible prelude to the WS, no way the Yanks get to WS and have Poteet in the rotation.
