CC Sabathia discusses Yankees' pitching strength for Wild Card series

CC Sabathia expressed confidence in the Yankees' chances to succeed in a short playoff series, citing their strong starting pitching staff, which includes Cam Schlittler, Max Fried, Gerrit Cole, and Carlos Rodon. The Yankees will face the Red Sox in a best-of-three Wild Card series beginning Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. Sabathia highlighted the importance of setting up their pitching effectively, especially with key players like Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge unavailable. Looking ahead, it appears the Yankees may start Fried in Game 1, followed by Schlittler and Cole in the subsequent games if necessary.
