Big test for Weathers’ first start as a Yankee. Please don’t suck!
Breaking: Ryan Weathers is excited.
Ponce carted off field after sustaining right knee injury in Blue Jays debut.

Grisham continuing his spring training blues; Judge outside those 2 HRs, has been awful.
How many innings for Weathers to hit 75 pitches?
50/50 he’ll be gone before 55 pitches
If it were Lagrange I’d be excited. Tonight I’m wary.
Castillo 2.74 era vs Yankees
I was about to complain about Caballero laughing it up with Randy fucking Arozarena at 2b. He hasn’t been here! He doesn’t know!
Then they ran a really nice pickoff move and nearly got him. I don’t know if I can forgive him.
I don’t know if I like challenging a 1-0 pitch in the 3rd. But Cabby was right.
The umps are going to have nervous breakdowns. The one to Stanton looked like a strike at first.
Goddammit, G.
Hot start for Mr. 50-50 wannabe.
That was… something.
You almost feel bad for the ump. Almost.
Not sure which is Refsnyder’s greatest achievement in baseball, lasting a decade in MLB or introducing Judge to his hitting coach.
Watch Castillo pitch the seventh, IBB Stanton on zero pitches, retire the three lefties in order, and finish the inning under 100 pitches.
Does ABS use the same pitch-tracking equipment/data as GameDay?
Yay, Rice can hit a lefty!
Jose A. Ferrer has to use his middle initial because of SAG rules.
Eduard Bazardo will not have that issue.
Yay Rosario! Better than McMahon even with the platoon disadvantage. And he hasn’t even made a throwing error today.
BLACKBURN?!!? How is BLACKBURN the call here?!
Managing for participation, like in little league.
Boy, NOT a good start to the season for the jazzy one.
Good to have Rosario batting against multiple righties late.
I mean, it’s not like McMahon has been doing anything.
I’d say top 10 would be a great time for Lots O’ Runs but …. it ain’t getting to Top 10, is it?
kind of weird to pitch to cal
Especially left handed.
and 15 seconds later it’s over
Bye, bye Blackburn, bye, bye.
Four games, 14 runs, with 7 in the opener. WOE.
I don’t even hate Blackburn, but this lack of urgency is annoying as fuck. They were JUST saying that they were tired of acting like March games don’t count the same way as other games, and their response is to manage this game like it DIDN’T matter?
What the fuck was Boone thinking here? You walk Raleigh and bring in Hill to get the double play. You let Doval pitch the 8th.
Blackburn is fine, but he’s not some lockdown reliever. He’s the guy who will give you innings and give up, like, A run. That has some real value.
But he’s not the guy you just give the ball to in a tie game and say, “Okay, it’s all you from here on out.”
It’s just so stupid.
Why did Doval only face one batter? Two pitches!
Did Lorenz stop dying his hair?
Boone said he was a little short in the pen. Huh?
First Boonerism of the 2026 season.
