Yankees Mailbag: The third starter and Judge's Triple Crown pursuit
Briefly

Nestor Cortes has definitely pitched his way back into postseason starting consideration, showcasing his poise and control that could be vital in critical games.
Luis Gil has undeniable talent with dominating pitches, but his control issues raise concerns, contrasting Cortes’ strong command, which makes him a safer option.
The decision of whether to use Cortes as a starter or in relief presents a dilemma, as transitioning roles can be challenging, especially in high-stakes games.
Ultimately, the Yankees will have to weigh whether to prioritize Gil's higher risk/reward potential in the rotation against Cortes' dependable performance this postseason.
