Preview the Aug. 19 matchup between the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays with recent trends, how to watch, livestream info, and more.

The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays are playing a two-game series this week at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Fla.

The Yankees have David Bednar closing, meaning Luke Weaver has been moved back to a set-up role. They also have former Giants closer Camilo Doval for the back-end of the bullpen to go with Mark Leiter, Jr. and Tim Hill. That has allowed Boone to put struggling former closer Devin Williams into fewer high-leverage situations.

Boston sits one game behind New York for the top wild-card spot and trails the Blue Jays by six games for the division. The Red Sox need a momentum swing after three straight losses to sub-.500 teams in the Miami Marlins and the New York Yankees.

The Yankees moved several pitching prospects at the trade deadline last month, but still have depth in the farm system at the position.
