I think even listing a Game 3 is wishful thinking. The pitching of the NYY'ers vs the Red Sox lineup would be too much. So, IMO , it does not matter too much how you organize the lineup or who is in it. No one is in a positive mode at bat.
Of course, agreed, that if our pitching can keep the Yanks at 1 to 2 runs, or even a shutout like last night, then there's a chance for one win, and a Game 3 disappointment for the 99th time in history.
