The Yankees have nine games left in their season and are 7 ½ games back of a wild-card spot after they beat the Blue Jays, 5-3, on Thursday in The Bronx.
They have not been mathematically eliminated, but their season essentially, if not officially, is over.Judge is moving better these days, but he is still playing through a ligament tear in his right big toe suffered in early June.JASON SZENES FOR THE NEW YORK POSTBoone has said Stanton is fine physically, but the struggling right fielder and DH has plunged offensively and has had issues running the bases as he protects himself from a lower-body injury.
“Certainly have conversations with those guys, but no plans [right now],” Boone said before the game, in which Judge smacked an RBI double and Stanton did not play. Bauers showed he has kept working and blasted a three-run home run, his 12th homer of the season, in the first inning against Jose Berrios.
Everson Pereira was out of the starting lineup for a seventh straight game with a low-grade hamstring strain.
