The Yankees have not won since adding four new players to their roster, losing to the Marlins 7-3 on Sunday. Aaron Boone emphasized the need for urgency as the Yankees face a sinking playoff position, trailing the Blue Jays and the Red Sox. They have lost 27 of their last 45 games and struggled offensively, with only six hits in the latest match. The upcoming series against the Rangers, a strong team in the wild-card chase, poses another challenge.
"It's getting to be real gut-check time," Aaron Boone said. "It's getting late. It's certainly not too late for us and I am confident that we're going to get it together, but that's all it is right now. It's empty until we start doing it."
"I wouldn't say there's concern, but I would say I think a little sense of urgency would be good for us going forward," Ben Rice said. "As we move deeper into the season here in this playoff race, we're going to have to pick it up eventually."
