After an opening weekend chock-full of afternoon Grapefruit League action, the Yankees will take the field in Tampa tonight for a primetime matchup against the Tigers. Luis Severino will face a Detroit lineup largely composed of regulars, while the Yankees will put forth a mix of stalwarts, prospects, and depth options against righty Beau Brieske.
Notably, top farmhand Anthony Volpe will look to build on a stellar spring debut that saw him notch two hits and swipe two bags yesterday against the Blue Jays. He’ll be batting fifth and playing second base, where he’s only started twice in his professional career.
