Judge to join Stanton in Yankees’ lineup today

Sluggers Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton will be in the New York Yankees’ lineup together for the first time in today’s game against Detroit.

Judge will get one or two atbats as the designated hitter in his first game since offseason left shoulder surgery, while Stanton will play right field.

“He’s in a good place,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said of Judge on Tuesday. “He’s rarin’ to go.”

Barring any issues, Judge will the right fielder Friday against Atlanta.

Stanton, the 2017 NL MVP after hitting 59 homers, was obtained from Miami in December. Judge homered 52 times en route to becoming the AL Rookie of the Year last season.

Also, left-hander CC Sabathia will make his first spring start Thursday and right-hander Masahiro Tanaka wil pitch Friday.

Union files grievance against 4 teams

At Bradeton, Fla., Major League Baseball Players Association filed a grievance against the Miami Marlins, Oakland Athlet-

ics, Pittsburgh Pirates and Tampa Bay Rays, accusing the teams of failing to appropriately spend revenuesharing money.

Union spokesman Chris Dahl, speaking Tuesday at the union’s training camp

for free agents, said the grievance was filed Friday. Union head Tony Clark declined to comment.

“We have received the complaint and believe it has no merit,” Major League Baseball said in a statement.

If the case is not settled, it would proceed to a hearing before Mark Irvings, baseball’s independent arbitrator.

The grievance was first reported by the Tampa Bay Times.

Miami was 20th in payroll last year for its 40-man roster, according to MLB’s final figures. Pittsburgh was 25th, Tampa Bay 27th and Oakland 28th.

Pittsburgh traded star outfielder Andrew McCutchen and ace Gerrit Cole during the offseason. Baseball’s collective bargaining agreement states “each club shall use its revenue-sharing receipts ... in an effort to improve its performance on the field” and prohibits use of that money to service debt related to franchise acquisition and service to debt not related to improving on-field performance.
