Anthony Rizzo led the Yankees to a much-needed sweep of the Marlins over the weekend, and while the Yankees were winning in Miami, the Rays were sweeping the Red Sox in St. Petersburg. The Yankees now trail the Rays by six games in the loss column for the division, the Red Sox by four games for the first wild card and the A’s by one game for the second wild card. The Yankees’ next 10 games against the Orioles, Mariners and Royals are a chance for them to potentially hold a playoff spot by the end of next week.
