Ask Pinstripe Alley: Yankees mailbag questions request

It’s been a tough week for the Yankees. A road trip through Philadelphia and Tampa Bay didn’t go their way, but that’s the least of their worries. Giancarlo Stanton is on the IL with a hamstring strain and the pitching staff behind Gerrit Cole is faltering. Masahiro Tanaka is getting back into game shape, but there’s been some question marks beyond that.

Perhaps you’re concerned about how this setback hurts Stanton’s season, or what the options for DH look like in the meantime. Maybe you want to know what looked encouraging from James Paxton’s latest start. Whatever your question, send it in to us for a chance to be featured in this week’s mailbag.

Answers will run on Friday morning. All questions received by the night of August 13th will be considered. You can leave your submissions in the comment section below or by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
