Well, the Yankees get three straight tough pitchers, including one of the best lefties in the Majors, so, well, that sucks.
FFS, have they had any basic old 7 pm starts yet? I keep getting surprised by games in progress.
This time its because of inclement weather in Detroit.
First Kid Rock, now this? Is there no end to the indignities Detroit will foist on us?
All three games were switched to afternoon, the next two earlier, because wind chills in the 20s are expected at night.
Oh, come on.
Posada school of baserunning. Honestly, that Belli liner would have probably been a double play regardless.
Sure, maybe, but at least give them a chance to screw it up.
Oh true, it was inexcusable.
Since he’s GOING to give up the occasional home run, Rodon’s walks are really unforgivable.
His stuff is great today, but those moronic fucking walks…
unfortunately, a 10% walk rate is probably the real Rodon and not the 7.5% guy he was last year and here an there in years past.
Because the consecutive walks never comes back to bite you, Rodon.
It’s like Cole. Even in a great game by Cole, he’ll give up the occasional deep drive (like Clemens striking out 20 but also giving up a home run), and that’s why you can’t be giving out free passes.
Yankees exposed
Is Margot the only Grand Cru in the MLB?
The Rays were experimenting with a ’76 Chateau Lafitte at third but the defensive metrics were lousy even if it was a huge boost to the team’s overall Tannins Above Replacement.
Shoulda gone 82 Petrus
Yes!
Nice 😉
A Rodon special is well underway. Loss incoming.
Did Rice just miss third with his hand diving back? The replay angles suck, the bases is blocked from every angle, but clearly he was there WELL before the tag came down.
Ian Hamilton 3 games at Scranton 15.44 era, 2.1ip, 6h, 2BBs. Is it for sure he has to come up?
Yes Flash Rodon’s stuff is scintillating.
I liked this season a lot more going into the bottom of the 9th yesterday.
With how stupid and undisciplined Rodon is, how the fuck did this dude have back to back dominant seasons?
He is the easiest guy in the world to rattle. He’s a mental midget.
The good news tomorrow Carrasco vs Skubal. Fortunately tomorrow I have a periodontal appointment.
Bregman AL player of the week. More encouraging news.
Five runs on two fucking hits. Rodon is the dumbest pitcher alive.
Unfortunately, of the two pitcher qualities you adduce, “alive” seems the easier to mitigate.
Home runs going to Jazz’s head. He thinks he’s a 40+ guy, instead striking out at a 43% rate.
How close was that to going out?
Not that but well hit.
Bad luck on that.
Yankees crisp as a soft boiled egg.
Good thing they checked again to make sure they really know whether walking two of the first three guys in an inning really is a bad idea or not. The scientific method at work!
Ah, the Yankees’ MVP (opponent errors, wild pitches) finally shows his face!
Clay Bellinger has a higher Yankee career OPS than Cody.
Ugly game
They shoulda stood home.
My prediction second wild card
