8 in a row! Great job by Montgomery again. Annoying that his stat line doesn't really reflect how well a job he did last night. Essentially one mistake all game.
Castro and Judge continue to impress. Bullpen has been very solid as well.
Severino tonight in game 2. Hopefully he can build on his strong start from last week.
If we stay healthy and the re-emergence of Headley, CC, and Ellsbury is for real....there's no telling how good this team can be and another WS Championship is not unrealistic
I'm thinking they've already raised some eyebrows around MLB. Full believers if Severino continues well tonight.
Chisox are starting a RHP - Bird will be there. The harder question is how can you keep Hicks out of the lineup? But he probably will be.

Bird is in the lineup tonight and builds on his great game on Sunday. Carter has been a black hole as a replacement.
Gardner's bat could use a few more days off...

You know, the same could have been said last year, just without the results. Growing Pains.

I think Joe will start Gardner. If Hicks starts, more likely that Ellsbury DH's, Hicks plays CF and Holliday rests his back for another day.
Park at the garage behind home plate
It's like $40 but a great spot
Stole my thunder. I had nine but had nothing for ten (perhaps an omen)
LF Brett Gardner
CF Jacoby Ellsbury
DH Matt Holliday
2B Starlin Castro
RF Aaron Judge
1B Greg Bird
C Austin Romine
3B Ronald Torreyes
SS Pete Kozma
RHP Luis Severino
I agree though Kozma is unwatchable at the plate
wtf man
Scheduled rest day according to Headley
Especially impressive considering our relative inexperience and lineup changes at catcher. Although, there's already some chemistry built up from the young pitchers and catchers coming up together in the minors.
And who the hell is Leury Garcia??
Nope, Joe told him he'd have Tuesday a few days ago, soooo..
Torreyes and Kozma swing at the 1st pitch is not helping.
Double yup
He just fucked up
DFA tomorrow
He's stretched out that's good
Was pumping 98 in the 8th
Bear in mind Sevy is our number 5 starter - Tanaka up tomorrow. Not that these labels matter too much, but still...

but lot to be excited about with Sevy...he's still learning some lessons, but clearly here to stay

I would think Sevy is number 4 with Montgomery at no. 5
It's a loss in the W/L column, but a huge step forward for the franchise. Severino's last two starts have been incredibly encouraging. He has a 27:2 K:BB ratio on the season thus far. He keeps that up, or anything close to it, and he'll be a Cy Young contender this year. His stuff has been absolutely electric.
It's been a long long long time since this team has had a home grown ace. We may finally have one on the horizon.
