The New York Yankees are currently 42-29 and hold a two-and-a-half game lead over the Tampa Bay Rays for first place in the American League East. New York’s run differential is second-best in Major League Baseball (+102). Left-hander Max Fried has been incredible this season and lefty Carlos Rodon is having an All-Star caliber season. Gil hasn’t pitched in 2025 due to a right lat strain.
