It’s not a question of if the Yankees will lose this game, because they will never win another game road game against the Rays again. It’s just a question of which of their ridiculously overpaid players will be the most to blame for the loss. I don’t feel like doing the actual math, but I’m pretty sure this Rays starting nine is making less than the Yankees’ usual starting first baseman this year. I am certain they’re making less than the combined salaries of the usual starting 1B and 3B. Actually, their whole payroll might be less than that.
