Angels at Yankees – Monday Lineups, Odds, Pitchers, Broadcast Info – Aug. 2021

The Los Angeles Angels visit the New York Yankees for a brief one-game makeup date on Monday.
[sc name=”josh-benjamin-banner” ][/sc]The New York Yankees aren’t winning pretty, but are still headed in the right direction. It starts with ace Gerrit Cole returning to the mound Monday night after a stay on the COVID list. Even better, the Yankees face a Los Angeles Angels lineup that is still missing an injured Mike Trout, and now Anthony Rendon.
Meanwhile, the Yankees are also in a position to narrow the gaps between them and other teams in the playoff race. They are still third in the AL East, but just 5.5 games behind first-place Tampa Bay. In the Wild Card, they are 2.5 games out of a berth.
