Yankees Week 8/23/21: Hottest Team in Baseball, Players Back From the IL

Jose, Ryan, and Brian break down all the players coming back from injury, along with all the players who are slowly inching closer to coming back. On top of that, the Yankees now have a 2.5 game lead in the Wild Card and just 4.5 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays. Even with all the IL stents, the Yankees have found a way to become the hottest team in baseball. The Yankees have started to play a better brand of baseball, and it has shown up in the win column.
