dailyloe.com – The New York Yankees host the Los Angeles Angels at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday, April 14, 2026. Ryan Weathers will start for the Yankees against the Angels’ Reid Detmers. The game is the second in a four-game series. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 pm ET.
Ryan Weathers is looking to continue personal momentum from his last start. He dominated the Athletics last Thursday with an eight-inning, one-run performance. This followed two middling starts to open his season. The Yankees acquired Weathers from the Marlins this winter.
Weathers possesses a real fastball but his breaking pitches stand out. He may pitch backwards with a focus on his slider and curve. He has struggled with injury and inconsistency in the past. The key is following up one good start with another.
Reid Detmers will start for the Los Angeles Angels. He is having a solid year when looking past his ERA. His FIP is 3.38 through his first three starts. His strikeout rate has dipped from his three-year baseline.
Detmers’ walk rate has also decreased from his baseline. His flyball rate is currently up to 50 percent. His HR/FB rate is a paltry 4.5 percent so far. For April, the ball has stayed in the yard for him.
Based on the Yankees’ performance last night, that may not continue. Detmers is making his fourth start of the season. The Yankees are looking to continue momentum from an entertaining game. They would prefer a clean 5-1 win in this game.
Facing Detmers means Paul Goldschmidt will lead off for the Yankees. Amed Rosario and his .999 OPS will bat third. Rosario is giving Jazz Chisholm Jr. a break at second base. Randal Grichuk is also in left field spelling Cody Bellinger.
The game will be televised on YES and FanDuel Sports Network West. Radio broadcasts are on KLAA 830 for the Angels. For the Yankees, radio is on WFAN 660/101.9 FM and WADO 1280. The online stream is available on MLB.tv for out-of-market viewers.
