ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The only thing Aaron Boone is going public with regarding who will start the Oct. 3 AL wild-card game is that it won’t be a reliever.
“The three starters we are considering, I would say it will be one of the three,’’ Boone said prior to the Yankees’ 4-1 win over the Rays at Tropicana Field on Monday night, when the manager started reliever Jonathan Holder.
Boone said starting Holder, who worked the first and left, was done to give Luis Severino, Masahiro Tanaka and CC Sabathia each an extra day of rest.
