Yankees vs. Angels preview: Cam Schlittler's 1.14 road ERA meets Reid Detmers in pitching duel

Believe it or not, we are just a day away from the first official week of College Football .

Sure, we had Week 0, and those games count, but this is the first week where everyone is back in action.

That means baseball will take a bit of a backseat to football coming up very shortly.

However, we would be foolish to ignore it completely as the playoff race is heating up, and on those off days for football, this is where we can make extra money.

Tonight we will do that as the Yankees take on the Angels.

The New York Yankees are still in second place within their division, and to me, they still seem to be essentially the same team they've been since about June.

Aaron Judge went down after the May 31 game, but is now slated to potentially be back this week or next.

The team was 13 games above .500 with Judge, so they have played well even without their leader on the field.

Getting him back will be a shot in the arm as they look to secure a Wild Card spot.

Part of the reason for the Yankees' success is that they've had very good pitching this year.

As a team, they have a 3.25 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP.

One of their best pitchers goes tonight, as they have gotten a phenomenal season out of Cam Schlittler.

For the year, Schlittler is 12-6 with a 2.09 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP.

He also has 201 strikeouts, putting him at sixth in the Majors.
