The Yankees set their 26-man roster Saturday for the American League Division Series against the Rays, with Aaron Judge still sidelined by a strained right calf and Giancarlo Stanton remaining in the October picture.
New York will open the best-of-five series in Game 1 at 6:30 p.m. ET, with the game airing on TBS, truTV, UniMas and HBO Max.
Judge was left off the postseason club for a second consecutive round as the Yankees continue to manage the right-calf injury. The roster does include Stanton, whose right-handed power gives New York a familiar October option at designated hitter.
The Yankees made room for left-hander Ryan Weathers on the pitching staff, while infielder Amed Rosario was not selected. New York will carry 11 pitchers, two catchers, seven infielders, four outfielders and two designated hitters into the Rays series.
