Yankees Lineup vs. Cristopher Sánchez (L)
Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Juan Soto, both left-handed hitters, show promise against lefties with Chisholm’s .290 wOBA and Soto’s impressive .422 wOBA, highlighting their potential to disrupt Sánchez early on. Gleyber Torres and Aaron Judge bring power from the right side, with Torres boasting a .205 ISO and Judge a staggering .402 ISO, indicating significant YRFI odds potential against Sánchez’s left-hand pitching. Sánchez’s low HR/9 of 0.23 suggests he’s generally effective at suppressing power, but the Yankees’ lineup presents a challenging matchup.

Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper, with wOBAs of .443 and .411 respectively, pose a significant threat to Cortes, especially given Harper’s .260 ISO. Trea Turner and Alec Bohm add depth with Turner’s .392 wOBA and Bohm’s lower K% of 10, suggesting they could capitalize on Cortes’s 1.38 HR/9.
