\n Aaron Boone insists he\u2019s not concerned about Gleyber Torres\u2019 shaky start. <\/p>\n

In three days, however, the burgeoning superstar has gone from the team\u2019s third-place hitter to No. 6. It\u2019s a sign that his anemic .119 batting average and 0-for-24 stretch is at least something the team is monitoring in this shortened season in which results are amplified and every game<\/a> carries additional weight. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not really worried about Gleyber too much,\u201d Boone said over Zoom before the Yankees opened a four-game series<\/a> against the Rays in Tampa with a 1-0 setback. \u201cHe\u2019s been probably a little over-aggressive, probably expanding the zone a little bit, chasing [pitches]. We\u2019re all human, even as great of a player as Gleyber is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since leaving a victory over the Orioles in the fourth inning on July 30 after getting hit in the elbow by a pitch, Torres has struggled, it should be noted. He has two hits in his last 25 at-bats. With that said, he was just 3-for-15 before getting hit by the John Means pitch. He\u2019s reached base just three times in 12 games, walking only twice.<\/p>\n

Boone pointed to some bad luck and the young shortstop expanding the strike zone as reasons for Torres\u2019 issues in this truncated 60-game season. But he thought he looked better on Friday, despite going hitless.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I feel like he\u2019ll break out sooner than later,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

The Yankees\u2019 taxi squad for this weekend\u2019s series against the Rays included a few givens. Recently optioned players Miguel Andujar and Thairo Estrada are on it. So is catcher Eric Kratz and pitcher Ben Heller.<\/p>\n

The last name, though, was somewhat of a surprise: Pitcher Albert Abreu, a highly regarded prospect who can reach trip<\/a>le digits with his fastball.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s put himself in position to be that guy and the upside is tremendous. I mean it\u2019s terrific stuff,\u201d Boone said.
<\/br>
\nEach team is allowed to bring five extra players on the road who can be added to their 28-man active roster in case of injury. They are allowed to work out before games with the rest of the team. <\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Boone said it is \u201clikely\u201d Gerrit Cole will start the opener of Saturday\u2019s seven-inning doubleheader and the nightcap would be a bullpen game. Cole is off to a perfect 3-0 start in his three outings with a 2.55 ERA and 16 strikeouts in 17 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings, but the high-priced newcomer still sees room for improvement.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we need to get ahead of some hitters better,\u201d he said, speaking of himself. \u201cI would like to see command kind of improve across the board. And I would like to see us make some better pitches once we do get count leverage.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
