Yankees Look to Rebound From Recent Struggles as All-Star Break Approaches
As the All-Star break approaches, the New York Yankees find themselves in a precarious position: having lost six of their last eight games, the Bronx Bombers must now refocus in order to make a push for the playoffs. Despite their recent struggles, the Yankees have still managed to put together an impressive performance overall this season. Offence-wise, they have scored 4.38 runs per game (good for eighteenth in the league amongst all teams), while also hitting a collective .229 (28th overall) with an OPS of .705 (23rd overall). Moreover, they have achieved 111 home runs (placing fourth in the league) and stolen 49 bases (19th this season). On the pitching side, the team's stats are equally impressive. Their ERA of 3.73 is 4th best in the league, while the 1.22 WHIP is sixth best overall. In addition, they have achieved 21 quality starts. Veteran pitcher Cole has been particularly impressive this month, surrendering only five earned runs and having 27 strikeouts over his last four starts (25.1 innings). Moreover, it appears as though he has kept the ball in the park recently, having only given up one home run in June after a total of eight in his last five outings in May.
