Yankees’ bats facing bedeviling Rays challenge: Sherman
NY Post
The Yankees are playing better. Their starters — and not just Gerrit Cole — have performed well, allowing three earned runs or fewer in 19 of their last 20 games. Their bullpen has been near airtight all season. Even their defense has ticked up a grade, perhaps two.
The offense? It did enough to assist in a 7-2 homestand. But Aaron Boone conceded, “There is more in there,” following a 3-2 Mother’s Day triumph over the Nationals.
Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
