But could mother nature possibly get in the way of their starts?
In the way of game three of the four game series between New York, Minnesota?
I would say that is a possibility!
Why?
Because when the first pitch is supposed to be thrown there is a 20% chance of rain and chances increase to 47 %, 51% at 2:00pm and 3:00pm.

New York who is a member of the American League East comes into the game with a record of 71-52!
Why?
Because they won last night’s game over Minnesota by a score of 10-2!
Why?
Nestor Cortes Aaron Judge, Luke Voit led New York to 10-2 win over Minnesota in Bronx New York!
How?
Luke Voit went 4-for-5 with a home run and four RBIs, and Aaron Judge drilled a two-run homer, helping the Yankees jump out to a big lead for a second straight night as they pounced on rookie starter Charlie Barnes.
Nestor Cortes had this to say about his outing verses Minnesota!
Minnesota who is a member of the American League Central comes into the game with a record of 54-69!
Why?
All nine batters had gone to the plate and four runs were on the board before Twins rookie starter Charlie Barnes escaped the first inning on Friday night.
The 25-year-old left-hander, the club’s No. 30 prospect per MLB Pipeline, toiled for 37 pitches until left fielder Rob Refsnyder threw out Gary Sánchez at the plate to finally put an end to the frame. Though Barnes hung in there for five innings, ultimately tossing a career-high 109 pitches, his outing had more or less been decided by that point -- as had Minnesonta’s’ fate in an eventual 10-2 loss to New York.
