New York Yankees @ Houston Astros: Clarke Schmidt vs. J.P. France
Briefly

Clarke Schmidt has the ball, looking to build off an impressive 2023, and in many ways he's playing with house money.
Taking three of four with respectful scores would be the next-best option, so Clarky merely has to be decent today to make us all feel pretty good heading into the season's second series.
I'm not going to say the Yankees are feeling much urgency this early in the year, but it's awfully nice to see both Juan Soto and Aaron Judge in the lineup today.
Anthony Volpe was a late scratch as the shortstop deals with a stomach bug. Oswaldo Cabrera moves over to short, and new Yankee Jon Berti gets his first start with the club at third.
