Yankees, Red Sox announce starting lineups for Monday afternoon
Sunday was perhaps the worst the Bronx Bombers have looked so far in spring training, as they were shutout 4-0 by the Tigers and limited to only five hits, all of which were singles.
Perhaps the more concerning part yesterday afternoon was the defense, with left fielder Jasson Dominguez misjudging two fly balls that led to hits for Detroit.
The position is still a learning curve for Dominguez, with the recently turned 22-year-old projecting to be the starting left fielder on Opening Day at Yankee Stadium versus the Milwaukee Brewers on March 27.

There's still plenty of time for him to learn from these growing pains and improve in the outfield with 30+ games left in spring training.
The Red Sox are also coming off of a game to forget, as they held a 5-2 lead over the Blue Jays until Toronto scored six unanswered runs in the top of the ninth inning and held on for a 8-7 victory over Boston.
Here are the starting lineups for the Yankees and Red Sox later this afternoon:

Yankees Could Poach 'Obvious Fit' Alex Bregman from Red Sox: Report
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees tried to solve their third base woes by trading for Ryan McMahon. However, he is hitting just .245 with the team and may not be part of the team's long-term plans. The Boston Red Sox signed Alex Bregman to a three-year, $120 million deal last offseason, but he figures to opt out after the year. He will be one of the hottest names on the market, and MLB insider Jim Bowden tabbed the Yankees as an "obvious fit." Bregman found his All-Star form again with the Red Sox. He is slashing .299/.379/.542 through 76 games. He has set himself up for a massive payday this offseason. HOUSTON, TEXAS - AUGUST 11: Alex Bregman #2 of the Boston Red Sox waves to the crowd during the pregame ceremony before the game against the Houston Astros at Daikin Park on August 11, 2025... HOUSTON, TEXAS - AUGUST 11: Alex Bregman #2 of the Boston Red Sox waves to the crowd during the pregame ceremony before the game against the Houston Astros at Daikin Park on August 11, 2025 in Houston, Texas. MoreHe bet on himself by taking a short-term deal with opt-outs, and now he may be one of the most coveted free agents. Even if he wants to stay with the Red Sox, he will have plenty of other teams trying to get him. "It appears Boston would be his first choice in free agency, but he is an obvious fit with several other contending teams including the (Philadelphia) Phillies, (New York) Yankees, (Detroit) Tigers, (Los Angeles) Dodgers, (Seattle) Mariners and even the (New York) Mets," wrote Bowden. Bregman is a three-time All-Star, two-time Silver Slugger, Gold Glover and World Series champion. He has also been praised as a leader in the Red Sox clubhouse. The Yankees could trade McMahon after just a couple of months on the team and make Bregman their third baseman for years to come.

Cody Bellinger Expected to Opt Out With Yankees, Seek Long-Term Deal
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees know they run the risk of losing in Cody Bellinger in free agency. Bellinger has an opt-out in his contract after the season ends, and MLB insider Jim Bowden from The Athletic believes he will hit the market in search of a long-term contract. NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 11: Cody Bellinger #35 of the New York Yankees hits a solo home run during the first inning of the game against the Minnesota Twins at Yankee Stadium on... NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 11: Cody Bellinger #35 of the New York Yankees hits a solo home run during the first inning of the game against the Minnesota Twins at Yankee Stadium on August 11, 2025 in New York City. More"Bellinger has been a perfect fit playing half his games at Yankee Stadium, with the short porch in right helping him hit 22 home runs," wrote Bowden. "He also has an .816 OPS and 10 stolen bases. His above-average defense at all three outfield positions and first base helps his value. He is expected to opt out of his 2026 option so he can land a more lucrative, longer-term deal." It makes sense that Bellinger would try to get a long-term deal this offseason. He's 30 years old now, and this might be his last chance to get a major, long-term contract. With the CBA expiring after next season and a lockout looking likely, Bellinger will certainly want the extra security. Currently, he is making $27.5 million with the Yankees. If he were to stay in his current contract, he would be playing on a $25 million player option next year. Spotrac currently shows Bellinger's market value at a six-year contract worth $131.5 million -- an average of $21.92 million per year. If Bellinger were to become a free agent, the Yankees would more than likely be one of the teams pursuing him aggressively. He's done well for them this season and benefits from the short porch in right as Bowden pointed out. Add to that a weak group of center field free agents, and it makes sense that Bellinger will be sought after by the biggest contenders.

Yankees Urged To Cut Ties With Struggling $8.6M All-Star Before Postseason
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees have struggled lately, and a lot of the blame has been placed on manager Aaron Boone and reliever Devin Williams. Williams has lost games for the Yankees, but Boone continues to trust him. With the postseason quickly approaching, the Yankees have some big decisions to make. Adam Weinrib of Yanks Go Yard recently urged the Yankees to place Williams on waivers ahead of the postseason. DETROIT, MICHIGAN - APRIL 09: Devin Williams #38 of the New York Yankees delivers a pitch against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park on April 09, 2025 in Detroit, Michigan. DETROIT, MICHIGAN - APRIL 09: Devin Williams #38 of the New York Yankees delivers a pitch against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park on April 09, 2025 in Detroit, Michigan."The Yankees, for very good reason, would rather not embolden Williams' confidence and send him somewhere he can eventually bite them," Weinrib wrote. "They're also hanging onto a playoff spot for dear life, and it's really hard to consider postseason roster implications right now. "But ... who would you rather want taking October reps? Yerry de los Santos, or Devin Williams? A head-to-head with Loáisiga is probably a faceoff that Williams wins, but de los Santos, the Yankees' expert long man? Not so sure. Crazy, but not so sure. The waiver wire could get very spicy around the start of next month." Cutting ties with Williams would be ludicrous for the Yankees. He's struggled this year. It's by far the worst season of his career. He shouldn't be the closer in New York. All of these are correct. But Williams would be the best eighth-inning man in any bullpen in baseball. There's a reason that if the Yankees were to place him on waivers, nearly every contending team would try to scoop him up. If the Yankees don't want to use him as the closer, that makes sense, but he needs to be a piece of the bullpen if the team wants to win the World Series. He could provide a lot of use in the sixth or seventh inning of postseason games. More MLB: Dodgers Blockbuster? MLB Insider Floats Shocking Waiver Candidate In LA
