With Jazz Chisholm Jr. out for at least a month due to a strained oblique, the New York Yankees will rely heavily on infielder Jorbit Vivas, who was recently recalled from Triple-A. Vivas made a promising MLB debut in a win against Tampa Bay, previously acquired from the Dodgers for Trey Sweeney. Meanwhile, Aaron Judge continues his exceptional performance, named AL Player of the Month, and extending his hitting streak. The Yankees are also monitoring various player injuries, including Marcus Stroman's knee issues.
He had quality at-bats all night,'' Boone said of the 24-year-old. ''He can really play second, and he can swing the bat.
What I've been watching is he's playing a different game than everyone else,'' Boone said of Aaron Judge. ''He's better than everyone else.
I'm a little bit [nervous]'' Vivas acknowledged through an interpreter about his first game.
Vivas could get a solid chance for at least a few weeks with Chisholm sidelined.
