Niemann has been quietly brilliant this year, using his dominating fastball (18.2 RAA) to increase his K rate, cut his BB rate and hold opponents to a 15.5% LD% and a 44.3% GB% (both career bests).

AJ will try to be Good AJ, but that'll be especially tough against the Rays considering that Longoria and Crawford both hit over .340 against AJ, while Ben Zobrist and Jason Bartlett both slug over .500.
Let's Go Yankees!
