After the Chicago White Sox had a shocking series win against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the team will take on the New York Yankees without superstar outfielder Aaron Judge.
Will Venable is putting out the same lineup as Sunday against the Yankees. This will be a very lefty-heavy lineup against Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole. Per usual, Sam Antonacci, Miguel Vargas, and Colson MontgomeryWhile the White Sox did struggle offensively for all but one inning on Sunday, that six-run burst was all it took to defeat the Dodgers. The White Sox will hope for a more consistent day from their position players.
Romo's continued presence in the lineup is a bit surprising. He has struggled to a .095/.130/.143 slash line in his last seven games . In fact, he has struggled to a .602 OPS against right-handers and an .815 OPS against left-handers. This means Venable might be better off putting Edgar Quero in more often until Kyle Teel returns, especially considering Romo's poor defense.
Yankees superstar outfielder Aaron Judge has been out since June 2 with a rib injury that will sideline him for an indefinite time. This is a big blow to a Yankees team that relies heavily upon Judge's bat. Chicago's ace will be on the mound for what should be an exciting pitchers' duel. Martin is 9-2 with a 2.41 ERA this season.
In his last start, Martin pitched six shutout innings against the Atlanta Braves, outdoing Chris Sale. If anyone on this roster is destined for an All-Star appearance, it would be Martin. He has been lights out since the start of the year, finding success with his deep arsenal of pitches. The veteran has also done a fantastic job limiting his walks, carrying just a 5.4 walk rate, which has him in the 91st percentile of MLB arms.
Cole has been off to a blistering start since he returned from injury in late May. In four starts, Cole has pitched to a 2.45 ERA. Almost as if he never left! Cole had not pitched since 2024 after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
