In fact, Early & Tolle are the youngest starting pitchers on either side of this postseason rivalry. Luis Severino (24 in 2018) is the youngest on the Yankees side. https://t.co/6gNj0LtnYO

On Tuesday, Payton Tolle, 23, will become the 2nd youngest Boston starter in 28 all-time postseason games between the @RedSox and @Yankees. The youngest, Connelly Early, was 23 when he started Game 3 last year. The oldest? John Burkett, then 38, Game 6 in 2003. @MLBNetwork

Going through incentives, and best I can tell, here are some players who hit their incentives exactly: Sam Hentges: 45 G Austin Hedges: 70 GS Ty France: 500 PA Cal Quantrill: 110 IP Tyron Guerrero: 40.2 IP (40, so close enough) Eric Fedde: 15 GS https://t.co/spvYhMkjKR

Aaron Judge took a ball before hitting a groundball back to Elmer Rodriguez in his third live AB. https://t.co/bgHrIch3Wp

Jorge Castillo @jorgecastillo · ESPN
Aaron Judge’s second live AB was against Ryan Weathers. He walked on six pitches. He took one swing and whiffed: https://t.co/5MKQSZtmSH

2 Yankees trying to make it back for the wild card round: Ryan Weathers vs Giancarlo Stanton. https://t.co/gn8mnZvVs6

Jorge Castillo @jorgecastillo · ESPN
Ryan Weathers is throwing live here at Yankee Stadium, which means he wouldn’t be available to pitch tomorrow given his restrictions. Aaron Boone earlier today said they’re still deciding whether to put Weathers on the roster.

Aaron Judge vs Elmer Rodriguez as he tries to convince Yankees brass that his strained calf has healed sufficiently enough for him to play against the Red Sox. https://t.co/bQpPPSfJ94

Aaron Judge sighting. He’s taking batting practice on the field for the first time since suffering his right calf strain 12 days ago. https://t.co/Hpwu28DdYF

My favorite Kade Anderson stat from his MiLB season and there are many... When he gave up a 3-run HR against Northwest Arkansas in May, that was the only inning in 18 MiLB starts where he gave up multiple runs. https://t.co/0CG7Yq1yxh

ICYMI https://t.co/7DpYgO6WUl There were other good ways to go for Boone in Game 1, but picking Schlittler means mainly going with your best and, fringe benefit, avoiding the outside noise/second-guessing that would have buzzed around the Yankees otherwise.
