Get the brooms ready, Max Schuemann is starting in right field!
Aaron Judge may be out but with Schumann in RF we barely miss a beat.
Cecconi 800 OPS against.
Worst pitcher in the AL
Berra Howard->Wells Escarra. The tradition.
PGold is a smart hitter.
Just keep the game close against the worst starter in the league then match our pen against theirs is a plan. Not a good one, but a plan nevertheless.
Enter The Abyss.
Swimming all the way to Cambodia is tiring.
Doesn’t it depend where you’re swimming from?
Cabby shows everything wrong with Jazz. He gives Jazz a million chances to steal – we keep hoping the Yankee batters will be smart enough to do that. But Jazz, of course, just CAN’T FUCKING GET AN ATTEMPT OFF. Ruins Cabby’s whole at bat.
Cabby’s so in the game, I want the players to learn to f*ing THINK the way this guy obviously does. The he directed that take of second when he was caught off base yesterday — just awesome.
Well, hurrah.
Now, can we please get good news about Judge?
Was That was the best bullpen performance in months? 3 innings no hits! Then again I think clev already had their bags packed because they only got 2 hits off Rodon.
Probably right. It helps that Doval and Bird never got in the game.
Hoch: With Aaron Judge, the Yankees are hoping to rule out thoracic outlet syndrome. @castrovince wrote a good FAQ about what that is:

This is who Judge was referred to

Thoracic outlet syndrome is obviously worst case scenario, but I think there is some hope here that they truly are just ruling it out.
The thing that made me raise an eyebrow is that they had trouble with some of the imaging because of “edema.” I don’t know if that’s a symptom of thoracic outlet or anything in particular but I’ve never heard of that happening. I know what edema is, just never seen it mentioned as an issue
Trump’s ankles have edema. Is Judge really 80.
