Riley has productive night vs. Yanks
Austin Riley went 2-for-3 with a home run, two runs scored, and two walks on Friday against the Yankees. Riley’s OPS has climbed from .618 to .744 in exactly one week. That is truly remarkable. It already feels like his putrid April and May will be a distant memory soon. If there was any question, the buy-low window on Riley has slammed shut.
Jones hits triple in Yanks’ loss
Jahmai Jones went 1-for-3 with a triple, walk, and run scored Friday against the Braves. The Yankees’ offense was held to just one run and three hits in this one as Chris Sale and the Braves’ bullpen shut them down. Jones was the lone bright spot in just his fourth start of the season. It’s unlikely he earns a legitimate role but could get a handful more spot starts as long as Gleyber Torres remains out with a groin injury.
