With Aaron Judge Out Of The Starting Lineup Clint Frazier Gets The Opportunity To Play Right Field In The New York, Atlanta Finale In The Bronx

One player we’ve seen in the starting lineup for New York regularly this season won’t be in the lineup for Wednesday’s finale verses Atlanta in the Bronx.

Who is it?

Aaron Judge!

Why?

Because of lower body tigtness.

Aaron Boone said that the right fielder is receiving treatment on his  hips, hamstrings and calves.

Aaron Judge currently leads the Major Leagues with nine home runs and 20 RBIs -- he's tied with Colorado's Charlie Blackmon -- in 17 games. His slugging percentage of .758 also paces MLB.https://www.mlb.com/yankees/news/aaron-judge-lower-body-tightness-yankees

With Aaron Judge out for the finale verses Atlanta it will be Clint Frazier who will be playing right field.

In 2019 Clint Frazier had 225 at bats, 31 runs , 60 hits , 12 home runs, 38 runs batted in , 1 stolen base and a batting average of 267. “according to https://www.mlb.com/player/clint-frazier-640449
