"The New York Yankees will carry 12 pitchers and 14 position players for their 26-man American League Wild Card Series roster, which will be in action on Tuesday night in the Bronx for Game 1 against the Boston Red Sox. Pitchers (12) David Bednar Paul Blackburn Fernando Cruz Camilo Doval Max Fried Tim Hill Mark Leiter Carlos Rodon Cam Schlittler Will Warren Luke Weaver Devin Williams Catchers (2) Infielders (4) Jazz Chisholm Jr. Paul Goldschmidt Ryan McMahon Anthony Volpe Outfielders (4) Jasson Dominguez Trent Grisham Aaron Judge Giancarlo Stanton Utility (4) Cody Bellinger Jose Caballero Ben Rice Amed Rosario"
"The most notable omissions from the roster are pitchers Luis Gil and lefty reliever Ryan Yarbrough. Gil pitched the regular-season finale against the Baltimore Orioles, and his normal rest schedule would exclude him from the Yankees' pitching plans, anyway, for the best-of-three series against Boston. Yarbrough, who dealt with an oblique injury that held him out for most of the summer, has not pitched since Sept. 16."
The New York Yankees set a 26-man Wild Card Series roster featuring 12 pitchers and 14 position players for Game 1 against the Boston Red Sox in the Bronx. Notable roster omissions include pitchers Luis Gil and lefty reliever Ryan Yarbrough; Gil was on a rest schedule after starting the regular-season finale, and Yarbrough has not pitched since Sept. 16 following an earlier oblique issue. New York will carry only one left-handed reliever, Tim Hill. Paul Blackburn and lefty-hitting catcher JC Escarra made the roster. The roster includes veteran bats and bullpen pieces to cover a short, best-of-three series.
