New York Yankees — Before Saturday’s game, Joe Girardi announced that Aroldis Chapman will no longer be the team’s set closer, and that he would decide who pitches the ninth on the basis of matchups. Our belief is that those matchups will favor Dellin Betances and David Robertson, with Chapman himself still a possibility against lefties.
Updated hierarchy: *Betances | Robertson | Chapman.
* = closer-by-committee
