series with two top prospects making their debuts. Yankees really need this win tonight with a rookie and CC as their remaining two pitchers. With Toronto and Baltimore pretty hot, Yankees need to continue to put their foot on the pedal
FWIW Bleacher Report's post-deadline farm rankings...

WeatherMan : 8/4/2015 5:09 pm : link
solid fastball, great change, was working on the curve and has added a slider to work in as well. Walks were up earlier this year while really keying in on the curve, has definitely gotten into form of late and earned this shot at the majors. Tall lefty, young, 2/3 starter potential... great stage to start on, get em kid.
One of the unanticipated joys of this season

Me too. It amazing how after talking about the Yankees they mention that they play in a week division. However, they never mention how shitty the N.L. east is. Also that reporter Andy Martino. The Yanks must have kcicked him out of the locker room or something in the past. The next time he says something good about the Yankees will be the first.
Tanaka had a nice first inning  
illmatic : 8/4/2015 7:17 pm : link
Hope he keeps it up. And Ellsbury bails out the kid and strikes out swinging at ball 3. Supposedly he has command issues so they can't be helping him out like that.

Old time baseball rule - anything the CF can reach is his. But in this case Young should have had it until he was called off and he was looking to not catch it. Very weird for two major leaguers to blow a simple fly ball.

One of my favorite parts about Severino is how people rave about his "easy, loose" arm-action. For whatever reason I haven't heard many of the Yankees' stud pitching prospects be complimented for this. Can't wait to see him pitch.

At least he made an at bat out of that one. Probably kept him from coming out for the 7th even if the 6th is uneventful.

The Yanks' tradition of mashing in the first and shitting the bed thereafter continues. Owens looks good but they've been taking some bad swings at shitty pitches.

Papi could probably have gone elsewhere at various points in his career and made more money, but the airing of laundry after he left Boston would have made "Manny being Manny" look petty by comparison.

one of them would be that Ortiz fails a steroid test (again) and is forever tarnished. Biggest fraud in sports, and a colossal douchebag to boot. Can't stand him. Then I'd throw in a Knicks title in my lifetime and a third ring for Eli.

the effort, especially on the defense, has been nonexistent. The body language is shitty. Not really applicable to the kids, but the vets on this team don't seem to give a shit.

They've got KOs on Price, King Felix, Weaver and Hamels too after looking through the earlier schedule.

Interestingly, the one guy who completely dominated us this year to the point where they gave up was Dallas Keuchel in the first game of that Houston series we split

Exactly what they did when Bobby V. was there. Laid down like the dogs that they are. Quitters. Whenever things don't go their way, they abandon ship. Cowards.

Yet, we get it shoved down our throats about how tough and gritty they are. And Papi is the poster child of the misconception.

Thanks. Pitching is good but I thought maybe it would be a defensive minded outfielder. Watching Young tonight was not confidence inspiring, nor is Beltran, defense-wise. Might be nice to have a late inning sub.
Whoops....got Cale Coshow and Caleb Cotham mixed up

dpinzow : 8/4/2015 10:36 pm : link
for the 7th inning. He tried Wilson tonight and got scared of Shreve for some reason on Sunday when he gave up 2 HRs in garbage time. He might try Pinder in that role next because he throws 97-98

Random stat I came across earlier today: RHP Jonathan Holder and RHP Rookie Davis rank first and second in the minors with a 2.21 FIP and a 2.24 FIP, respectively. Thats among the 547 pitchers with at least 80 innings pitched. Luis Severino is ninth with a 2.46 FIP. He led the minors with a 2.40 FIP last year. How about that?

thanks. Was listening on radio at time of those wild pitches and wasn't aware of him doing so. That's Sterling and Waldmen for ya

He really is. He hit a shot tonight. 2nd decker.

Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 8/4/2015 11:30 pm : link
but man is he fun to watch at the plate when he's having a good night.

McCann has been overshadowed a bit by the A-Rod/Teix dual resurgence, but he has been great for us this year. Having all 3 of those big name guys earning their money this year has been awesome.

Hopefully Ellsbury gets going soon.
McCann and Tex are having MVP caliber seasons

with a 3 run HR. Not bad.
Had to listen  
MookGiants : 8/5/2015 1:30 am : link
to a couple innings in the car and Sterling was absolutely awful. Flipping out about Betances throwing breaking balls to Jackie Bradley, screwing up the count on 3 straight hitters and blaming the yankee stadium video board each time, then screwed up the score at one point too. Just awful. You can not listen to the game with him doing it and actually know whats going on because he constantly screws stuff up. It's infuriating.
You have to listen to the crowd noise...  
Dunedin81 : 8/5/2015 7:14 am : link
to figure out homerun calls, good defensive plays, etc etc, which is pathetic.
Sawx have mailed it in. It's pathetic. Yanks should pummel them.  
Victor in CT : 8/5/2015 7:37 am : link
Yanks announcers are generally awful with the exception of Singy and Flash. I least I feel like I learn something from them. The rest are all pompom waving Steinbrenner sychophants, the king and queen of which are Sterling and Waldman. They are horrid. Sterling at least has a decent voice, but he is blind as Mr. Magoo. Waldman just plain unlistenable.

Mets announcers much better IMO.

Mook it really is a crime. He is un-listenable. If i'm stuck in the car and want to listen I try and find the other team's call on Sirius. He can't even see any more. God forbid its a tricky kind of play, he's clueless at explaining it. Also he can't even be bothered to call the pitches in between him and Susan talking about all the useless shit they babble on about. Unreal that we are stuck with that garbage as Yankee fans.
