The New York Yankees’ offense hasn’t had a good week to this point. Before Saturday’s action, the unit had scored 11 runs in four games, an average of 2.75 per contest, which just isn’t going to cut it in modern baseball.
In three of those games, the Yankees’ hitters were held to just two runs. The offense was missing Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Hicks, and Luke Voit, while other stars such as DJ LeMahieu are struggling to get anything going.
Last night against the Detroit Tigers, they failed to back their ace, Gerrit Cole, who threw six innings of one-run ball.
