CC vs Hammel
This is a good series to get back on track. The Royals have 2 good pitchers in Vargas (Wed) and Duffy (Thurs), but their hitting has not been good this season.
minors note: Blake Rutherford is starting to get hot in A ball.
He is hitting .290 with .375 obp in 33 games. He hit his first HR this season. He has 19 runs and 15 rbi's. He also has 6 SB.
Our future outfield of RF Judge, Frasier CF, Rutherford LF?? I know he has a few years to go but he is only 20 but 2020 would be a good year to expect him.
lol ... KC is actually facing some tough decisions as to what to do with those guys who won the WS - contracts coming up and they're not getting younger, and some of them aren't hitting either.
Best defensive left side of the infield in baseball, though - it could easily have been 10-0 last night. Vargas will be tough tonight, though. I expect we'll see Hicks, but not sure for who ...
Ignore my comment then.
Don't call me stupid and mis-represent my post.
If the Yankees lose tonight, they should just call it a season and start rebuilding again.
No sweep and no message is sent to the rest of the league. Season over.

since KC has won a World Series sooner than we have, we NEEDED to win this game 10-0 to send a message.

Might as well trade all the current prospects, too, since they'll be tainted by the cowardly display of not sweeping. Tonight's game might be the most important since 2009.
