 The game two starting pitchers have seen plenty of their opposition throughout the years between his time with Seattle in his first season as a Yankee James Paxton has faced the Astros 14 times. Justin Verlander doubles him up. The former MVP has made 28 lifetime starts against the Yankees including six in the playoffs. We heard the news about John Carlos Stanton and the quad injury. Let's get the very latest on that as we get you out to Minervade Park right now. Meredith Marock have been standing by. Meredith what can you tell us what is the latest on stand. Bob it was certainly a red flag when the Yankees released their lineup and John Carlos Stanton was not in it. It's the first time they've altered their lineup this postseason and the change was not made because of matchups. It was made because of injury as Aaron Boone explains. Kind of injures quad last night. So hoping that it's a you know something that with today in the off day you know that he would be back in play for game three. We'll just kind of see how these next 48 hours unfold. He would be available tonight if you know to hit her or go in an emergency situation. So you know he is he is in play tonight but didn't feel like he was good to start. Does he know how he injured it. In the his first hit getting down the line. I mean we're going to do David day by day trade some water with it will be available off the bench as a choice to hit for Booney and and we'll just evaluate them on a daily basis. Obviously the off days tomorrow. So we'll see philosophy all season along with this team has been next man up. But are you even thinking to yourself at times how many more blows can we withstand this year. No. I mean bottom line is you know this team has been resilient and we just always forced to go a different direction. That's the way the big game of baseball seems to be set up anyway. It's like nothing goes as planned. So you don't sweat it. You turn the page and focus on what you have. And so you just repackage a little bit. So you know he's he'll be on the bench waiting in the wings as a threat. And you know hopefully Cam Maybin can take advantage like he has done so many times for us ready this year. With John Carlos Stanton out it'll be Cameron Maybin starting in left field. The Yankees could have opted to move Brett Gardner over to left and started Aaron Hicks in center field but they did not. I'll have more on that decision Bob later in the show. All right sounds good. We will see you then and we're welcoming now inside our yes studio in the Yankees pregame presented by Chevy Bob Lorenz Buckshaw Walter John Flaherty and Jack Curry. So hard to see what the long range implications are of this injury. They're hoping it's just short term. I think the phrase though that you take away from those interviews with Boone and Cashman Bob is 48 hours. The Yankees need to know if Stanton is a player for them for the rest of this series by Game 3. So they will sit and wait and see if they get him back and meanwhile for Verlander it's a little different look in the Yankee lineup because he doesn't have to face Stanton but that doesn't eliminate the pressure that is on his shoulders tonight. This is a guy who when he goes out there the Astros expect to win. He doesn't do his job tonight. They could be going to New York down 0 2.
