A Look At The Upcoming Series

After losing two of three to Toronto in their penultimate homestand, the Yankees begin a rigorous, ten-day, four-city road trip. 


They play just one game in Detroit before moving on to Tampa, Seattle, and Anaheim. The game against Detroit is a makeup from earlier in the season.

It will be Darrell Rasner versus Justin Verlander tomorrow. The Yankees stand at just eight games over .500 for the season. How bad is that? In July, they stood at thirteen games over .500.
