As the MLB season progresses, the New York Yankees are strategically managing their players' workloads. Manager Aaron Boone has begun giving key players like Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger rest days to maintain their effectiveness during the dog days of summer. Judge recently sat out against the Kansas City Royals, while Bellinger will take a break against the Boston Red Sox. Despite struggling with a .251 batting average and only nine home runs this season, Bellinger remains a vital part of the Yankees' lineup, ranking sixth in bWAR among his teammates. The Yankees, currently leading the AL East, are aiming to solidify their position in the postseason, especially with the rapidly advancing competitors like the Red Sox and the Minnesota Twins.
