On Thursday, the New York Yankees have the day off following their three-game series with the Baltimore Orioles.
They will open up a new series with the New York Mets (at Citi Field) on Friday night.

Aaron Judge is having another excellent season, as he is batting .268 with 42 hits, 16 home runs, 30 RBIs, 36 runs and five stolen bases in 44 games.
Recently, Yankees legend Alex Rodriguez spoke highly of Judge in an interview with WFAN.
Rodriguez: “He’s the best player in the game… To do it in a generation where strikeouts and low batting average are rewarded, he’s doing it with power, he’s doing it with contact, he’s doing it with batting average, Gold Glove like fielder and he’s also very durable. When it’s all said and done, he’s gonna go down as one of the top five right-handed hitters that’s ever played.”
Those are strong words coming from Rodriguez (who is also one of the best hitters ever).
Over 22 seasons, he batted .295 with 3,115 hits, 696 home runs, 2,086 RBI’s, 2,021 runs and 329 stolen bases.
Rodriguez helped lead the Yankees to the 2009 World Series Championship.

Judge was picked in the first round of the 2013 MLB Draft.
He is in his 11th season (all with New York).
The three-time MVP is batting .293 with 1,247 hits, 384 home runs, 860 RBI’s, 909 runs and 70 stolen bases in his first 1,188 games.
