The Yankees announced their roster for the ALCS, with a player Oswald PerazaRight-handers Frankie Montas And the Greg Weissert As new additions from ALDS. They will take the place of the defensive player Aaron HicksWhich is Done for this yearas well as the utility operator Marwin Gonzalez and left Lucas Lutge. Also of note, raging DJ Limaheu and defensive player Andrew BenintendeBoth with injuries, has not been added.
Here is the full list of the Yankees as they prepare to face the Astros:
right hand jugs
left-handed jugs
catchers
the intervenors
ball players
designated hitter
Hicks’ injury led to a domino effect, which necessitated some switching today. In the last two games of ALDS, Hicks started in left field with Oswaldo Cabrera In short, shake Isaiah Keener Valiva on the bench. After Hicks’ injury yesterday, Kiner-Falefa was eventually pinned down short with Cabrera out into left field. Without Hicks, it looks like Americans could use it Aaron JudgeAnd the Harrison Bader The Cabrera as a mix outside the usual ballpark. This excludes Cabrera from the picture on the field, in which Peraza will now intervene. Gonzalez is capable of playing anywhere, although he only hit .185/.255/.321 this year. The Yanks seem to favor rookie Peraza, who hit .306/.404/.429 in his 18-game debut this year.
Benintende underwent surgery at the beginning of September and has been working recently, trying to get healthy enough to join the club. but, Recent Reports He indicated that he had constant soreness, which led to an injection in his wrist. With no ability to return, Cabrera could be in line for regular missions overseas. Giancarlo Stanton He could be a theoretical option, having played 38 games on the field this year, although Jank may also choose to keep him as the designated hitter.
Similar to Benintendi, LeMahieu has been out for a while and has been trying to get healthy enough to come back. His absence was due to a problem with the ligaments of his right toe. It seems he hasn’t recovered enough to get a place on the list. With LeMahieu’s problem lingering, Cabrera likely on the field and struggling Kiner-Falefa, Peraza swapped with Gonzalez to compete for the short playing time.
As for Montas, it was the biggest date for the Yankees’ acquisition of promotion staff. However, he struggled really hard after coming from Zone A. He had a 3.18 ERA with Oakland but then a 6.35 ERA after the deal. It’s possible that shoulder issues were holding him back, as he missed a few starts before the trade and was eventually put on the IL by the Yanks due to shoulder inflammation. He hadn’t fully aged and wouldn’t be a candidate for an initial job, despite being a manager Aaron Bon recently said Montas can throw some multi-role excursions.
With the additions of Montas and Weissert and the subtraction of Luetge, the Yankees are left with Andy Peralta As the only left-handed in their barns. The Astros are very right-handed, and they only have two left in their lineup, although both are Jordan Alvarez And the Kyle Tucker. The Yanks seem to have more confidence in some of their right hands to take on the middle of the Houston lineup, with Clay HolmesAnd the Jonathan Loisiga And the Miguel Castro Perhaps in line to try to suppress Alvarez Tucker.
