The Yankees have had a slight advantage over the Red Sox this season, winning four out of five previous meetings. However, the team is currently playing without key player Aaron Judge, who has been on the injured list since May 31. With Judge, the Yankees are considered a top-three offense, but their performance has fallen to 12th in wRC+ in his absence. Players like Cody Bellinger, Ben Rice, and Paul Goldschmidt have contributed, but the overall lineup has been less consistent.
On Thursday, the Yankees are set to face Red Sox pitcher Cooper Connelly Early, who holds a 6-5 record with a 3.54 ERA. In his last start against the Yankees on April 21, Early allowed five hits and three earned runs over 5 1/3 innings.
