Carlos Rodón is on the mound as he looks to build on an impressive start against the Twins last week, where he was the first Yankee to complete seven innings in a game since he did it himself against the Cubs on July 11th.

Cam Schlitter’s homer-suppressing tendencies haven’t transferred over to the big leagues. The Yankees’ rookie has allowed six long balls in 29 ⅔ innings since his big league debut on July 9. Schlitter’s 1.82 homers allowed per nine innings is the 19th-highest among MLB pitchers with at least 29 innings pitched in that span.

Tampa Bay Rays right fielder Josh Lowe is expected back Wednesday vs. the New York Yankees after missing three games with right oblique tightness.

The Rays took three of the four series out west, but were swept by the Seattle Mariners for their lone series which meant that they were an even .500 over the 12-game span. Thus, their record is 61-64, 6.5 games back in the Wild Card chase; all three Wild Card teams are currently tied in the standings.
