New York Yankees manager Brian Cashman opens up on potentially facing the Houston Astros in the ALCS

The New York Yankees will face the Houston Astros if they get over the line in in New York. The Astros swept the Seattle Mariners in the and are riding a 106-win regular season, making them favorites for a World Series appearance. Cashman admitted that the Astros will pose a tough challenge, but a more rested team will not make a difference at this point in the season. He said: "I don't want to speak for anybody, but I would generally think that no one's going to feel anything other than joy if they have a chance to move on to continue their season. I think everybody understands that it's a difficult road going through this thing to navigate, and you're never going to be at full strength or 100 percent or lined up the way you want it." New York Yankees manager Brian Cashman is wary of the Astros having added rest for the ALCS Despite the missing out on key players through injuries, the likes of Gerrit Cole and Harrison Bader have stepped up to the plate to keep their hopes alive. A win over the Guardians will take them to the Championship Series, where the Bronx franchise could have their work cut out against the mighty Astros.
