Aaron Judge returned for one game on Wednesday before aggravating his calf injury, while Giancarlo Stanton and Gleyber Torres remain out.<\/p>\n<p>After a slow start, the Mets offense came to life against Miami before consecutive shutouts. Robinson Cano\u2019s resurgence has helped, as he\u2019s joined J.D. Davis, Brandon Nimmo, Michael Conforto and Dom Smith in sparking the lineup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Even<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16205688\"><img alt=\"Luke Voit and Pete Alonso\" data- data- height=\"441\" width=\"662\"><\/img><figcaption><span>Luke Voit and Pete Alonso<\/span><span>Paul J.

Luke Voit has helped make up for their loss, but this is a much different Yankees lineup than they expected to have. Though the Mets were homer-h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y in Miami last week, they\u2019ll need to prove that wasn\u2019t a fluke. Smith and Cano have been excellent, while Pete Alonso had shown signs he was about to break out, as well, before slumping again. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Even<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"On_the_basepaths\"><\/span>On the basepaths<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Tyler Wade provides speed for the Yankees, while the Mets have Billy Hamilton. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Even<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_the_field\"><\/span>In the field<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Infield:<\/strong> With Torres and LeMahieu out, Wade and Thairo Estrada have manned the middle of the infield for the Yankees, while Gio Urshela continues to impress at third. The Mets have Cano and Rosario up the middle. Gerrit Cole has praised Gary Sanchez\u2019s work behind the plate, but Sanchez still has four passed balls. Wilson Ramos has been shaky enough that Tomas Nido had gotten more playing time before he was placed on the IL. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Even<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outfield:<\/strong> Without Judge in right, the Yankees have Aaron Hicks, Brett Gardner and Mike Tauchman all available and above average in the field. Clint Frazier has also made strides defensively. Smith in left and Nimmo in center isn\u2019t great, but their bats make up for it. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Yankees<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bench\"><\/span>Bench<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Mets lost Andres Gimenez, a valuable weapon for Rojas. Luis Guillorme has played well and Hamilton can serve as a pinch runner or defensive replacement. The Yankees can go to Frazier, but Wade and Estrada may be in the lineup. The Yankees are still waiting for Miguel Andujar to show he can serve this role and he could end up back at the alternate site.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Even<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"On_the_mound\"><\/span>On the mound<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Rotation:<\/strong> Those waiting for a Cole and Jacob deGrom matchup are out of luck this weekend. Jordan Montgomery and J.A. Happ are slated to go for the Yankees, with prospects Clarke Schmidt and Deivi Garcia possibly making their MLB debuts. The Mets\u2019 rotation is still beaten up, but they could get Michael Wacha and David Peterson back from injuries. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Neither<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bullpen:<\/strong> The return of Aroldis Chapman gave the Yankees more firepower in the pen, but they have since lost Zack Britton to a hamstring injury. Chad Green had been dominant until he allowed a homer Wednesday. Adam Ottavino has been solid. The Mets have plenty of talented relievers, but they still have question marks. Seth Lugo has been terrific, but their rotation issues have forced him out of a late-inning role. Edwin Diaz has been better, but he still struggles on occasion. Dellin Betances is still rounding into form, and if the starters don\u2019t give the Mets any length, it will take a toll on the pen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Yankees<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manager\"><\/span>Manager<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Aaron Boone is in his third season at the helm in The Bronx and is coming off two 100-win seasons and playoff appearances. He\u2019s very comfortable in the seat. Luis Rojas, who got the Mets job only after Carlos Beltran became embroiled in Houston\u2019s sign-stealing scandal, is well-respected, but still inexperienced. Though Yankee Stadium will be quiet, he\u2019ll be under more scrutiny than ever this weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Edge:<\/strong> Yankees<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Intangibles\"><\/span>Intangibles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Injuries have taken their toll on the Yankees, who have lost five straight for the first time in more than two years. They\u2019re still virtually guaranteed a playoff spot.
