Despite being atop the American League Standings, the Yankees seem to be struggling to consistently reach their best form. Some defensive lapses and head-scratching decisions will be forgotten, thanks to a crucial comeback win for the Pinstripes Monday night.
Austin Wells ($4,500; 25 FPTS) continued his second-half surge, turning on an inside fastball and launching the go-ahead three-run blast. New York’s catcher is proving his game is just as good as his mustache with another monster night at the plate. The 25-year-old has thrust himself into the AL Rookie of the Year conversation, as he has climbed to +125 on the DraftKings Sportsbook to win the award.

The summer of Aaron Judge ($6,900; 12 FPTS) rolled on as he picked up a pair of knocks. Alex Verdugo ($3,300; 21 FPTS), who has had a season to forget, delivered a multi-hit outing that featured a majestic two-run shot in the fourth.
The Yankees look to clinch the series tomorrow with Marcus Stroman on the bump.
