While everything is terrible, and they’ll find a way to lose this one, I have to say, the lefty death lineup IS kind of cool.
Deja Vu yesterday.
Cody hit it hard. Slater too 105mph. This could’ve been a big inning. Bad and unlucky.
Slater hurt hammy.
That is some impressive lineup the Yanks are rolling with tonight
Shocked that Volpe struck out. Shocked!!! Does he lead the league in runners left on base?
phenom 206 (now 209), Julio Rodriguez 203, Michael Harris 202
Home run. Double. 100 mph out. Walk. 100 mph out. Walk. Bases loaded, phenom swings at a bad pitch to strike out though he might’ve been jobbed on strike two.
phenom RISP 192/604, 2 out RISP 131/455, 2 out bases loaded 143/476.
Wait what
Rosario is too new to understand the Yankees’ RISP protocol
Boy, the Martian sure does suck against lefties.
That’s why the Yankees brain trust kept him switch hitting all these years. They’re smarter than everyone else.
And that’s why Slater is here. Have they ever given any serious consideration to nixing the switch hitting? THe Martian looked overmatched against a pitcher who everyone else is creaming.
Six men LOB thru 2.
Yankees baseball
The suck has rubbed off on Fried.
Fried at 37 pitches through 1.2 innings. Three runs allowed so far. Is Fried fried?
Nice way to hold the lead, chump.
That was a hit and the two 100 mph shots in the first were not. Baseball is not fair and phenom could’ve maybe broken the game open in the first except he’s not clutch and the Martian can’t hit right handed.
Fried morphing into Rodon.
Rodon at least keeps it close thru 5.
Fried is a stone cold fucking loser.
There’s too much urgency, too much panic, too much choking. They need focus and calm. They’re toast. A while ago I thought they’d last thru the middle of August. Now I’m not so sure.
Maybe this should’ve scared Cashman off Fried post season
20 games, 12 starts, 5.10 era, 1.493 WHIP.
Boston got Crochet, we got Fried.
Boston got Narvaez, we got Escarra. Boston got Whitlock, we got Kriske. Cashman is the best.
How the hell does Stanton rock that to dead center with a swing that short. That’s unreal.
It’s truly shocking just HOW much Fried has choked recently. Just like a total piece of shit lately.
with all of the emphasis on winning at the margins, hard to imagine a better move than just replacing boone with whoever is in AAA.
it’s downright unserious to keep him at the helm.
nice pick by volpe
I’d pinch hit here.
Productive AB phenom.
Why not the previous inning with a man on second?
Shelley Duncan manages SWB.
Which reliever’s gonna lose it?
Williams.
Too easy.
The only person happy about Devin Williams is Ed Whitson.
Steve Trout
this is in the running for the worst loss of the week!
Can’t top last Friday
There was nothing stunning about that home run, and the fact that Pederson has sucked all year only made it more likely.
Even when Williams gets the save it’s almost never clean and dominant. Does Cash not understand? Have the analytics people missed this? Can’t Boone remember the past and is he doomed to repeat it?
CashBoone, twin towers of doing the same thing over and over. Williams is owed nothing by the Yankees, he’s been here half a season, and proclaiming him as still the closer was so very CashBoone.
A time for futility, the Yankees on the road in extra innings.
Wells will be the next guy we talk about failing to make any progress in the bigs.
He makes what happened to Gary look like a huge positive.
LOL But what else!
phenom #2 ROY runner up even a bigger POS than Wells. Is there anyone in Yankeeland who can evaluate talent. I want Narvaez back and Wells traded for Grisham. Wells 209/682, 097/365 last 14 days before today, 164/504 last 28. They used to wonder if Wells could stick as a catcher. Guess they blew that Evaluation.
Good thing all the catching depth has been traded for exactly what.
Yankees flambé.
Bird is the word.
https://x.com/betsandreps/status/1952570676432232885
Bird was a nice pickup Cashman. July 19.89 era BA/OPS against of 457/1354 for the month didn’t give Cashman pause. He saw something on his secret decoder ring that only he could see.
Imagine a farm system, the Yankees, that can’t produce a guy better than this. 😬
Number 10 prospect for Jake Bird. Rockies should’ve given us their #10 prospect for taking him.
Yankees have had only 1 hit in xtra innings on the road this season, 1-27. 0-6 this season, 13-28 since 2020.
Not choking at all.
Curry says phenom should’ve tried to steal on the first pitch.
So many to blame. Fried shitting the bed in the second. Yankees failed to add on after Stanton home run. Devin sucks, his third straight game giving up a run, 7 runs allowed in the last 8 innings, total offensive impotence on the road in xtras again, Bird should not be here and is the worst ever. The absolute worse.
Devin 7 runs in last 8 innings. Boone ‘“he’s got to tighten up.”
Katie S Yankees last 23 Road Games:
18 losses, 142 runs allowed
This is the 1st time in Yankees history they’ve had any span of 23 road games with 18+ losses and 142+ runs allowed
Yankees in Road Extra Inning Games:
6 games
33 PA
1 hit (single)
1 run scored (on a wild pitch)
0 RBI
Marc Carig ARLINGTON, Texas — The New York Yankees landed in Texas, fired up the grill and started BBQ-ing their own playoff hopes.
Obviously, Devin Williams sucked, but the real goat is Fried. What a fucking choker.
They’re both goats but giving up a game tying home run to a 143/473 OPS+ 40 hitter gets you a special seat in hell. Yankee hitters on the road in xtra innings are the ensemble 2025 goats.
