is reporting that Tyler Austin will be suspended 5 games.
Joe Kelly gets 6 games. Austin gets 5. Both will appeal.

Sabathia also gets a fine for going on the field while being on the DL.
CC was moving pretty well with that sore hip.

He'd hurt himself to help his teammates.
Glad CC was only fined  
DennyInDenville : 4/12/2018 6:26 pm : link
5 games is tough, but since Kelly got 6 I'm okay with it and find it fair.

Hopefully Austin comes back in 5 games and continues to help out his team like he has.
MLB weather  
Jints in Carolina : 4/12/2018 6:39 pm : link
Rain moving quickly to BOS, arrive as early as 7:30 now. 2 possibilities: a) a delay (if it occurs is likely earlier) and b) could they delay the start of the game now? I think that is a real possibility. PPD threat has to be raised as well, to 10-15%
5 is BULL  
Joey from GlenCove : 4/12/2018 6:57 pm : link
Thats 2, too many.

I figured it would have been 3 and 6

Someday, someone has to explain to me how it is fair that a player gets a suspension costing multiple starts, while a SP get a suspension that amounts to a single start getting moved back a few days. Particularly when the SP started an altercation by deliberately hitting a player with a pitch. This is BS, how else can players defend themselves when pitchers don't have to stand in the batters box themselves.

Kelly is a reliever.

Well, Joe Kelly since last year has not been a starting pitcher. He's been coming out of the pen for the Sox.
Nevermind

that was NOO where near intentional.
Not even close  
yankeeslover : 4/12/2018 7:26 pm : link
To intentional. Fucking cry babies
Zero intent to hit him  
mfsd : 4/12/2018 7:28 pm : link
But glad to see a Yanks pitcher not afraid to pitch inside. Not rooting for Hanley to be injured, but that’s what Pedro did to the Yanks a dozen times over the years
That being said, I’d put the chances of the Sox retaliating  
mfsd : 4/12/2018 7:29 pm : link
at about 98%.

It didn’t look intentional but I suspect a yankee will be hit.(later on tonight) And honestly I really can’t blame the Sox’s. They just lost their hottest hitter
That was a borderline swing

illmatic : 4/12/2018 7:52 pm : link
every time I see him pitch, it just makes me think of guys like Verlander and Cole. One of the recent, rare Cash miscues. But could ultimately be a huge one.
14 strikes, 16 balls so far for Gray

but the Yankees kind of suck.

If I were a Yankee fan I would be clamoring for Girardi. There is nothing at all wrong with the offense on that team.

Pitching is suspect.
Wade continues to distinguish himself.

Fielding
Is there a pitcher on the staff  
Beer Man : 4/12/2018 7:58 pm : link
that can throw strikes consistently? Gray is unwatchable, to think we gave up 3 premium prospects for this tomato
OK, just as I was typing that...  
DonQuixote : 4/12/2018 7:58 pm : link
The throw from 2nd to home, which was blown, could have been made by any little leaguer.

Wade is also garbage. Auto out  
The_Boss : 4/12/2018 7:58 pm : link
And apparently can’t throw a strike to the plate to gun down a catcher. This game might be over.

The pitching is definitely suspect and I blame Cashman for that. I'll praise the good moves he's made but I'll also blame him for not doing more for the pitching staff.

But freaking out about the offense and Boone so early in the season is silly. If they were 2-9 right now then I could maybe see it. But Boone could settle in and learn the players better and the lineup is banged up, plus half of them are just cold and it's still early.

No excuse for this pitching, though. There's no excuse for not going for Cole. Gray is a #4 or #5 guy and they went into the season acting like he's a 2 or 3. They need another 1/2 type.

Would you want fans of other teams jumping on our threads when the Mets are struggling to jam their unsolicited opinions about our team in our faces?

Probably not, right?

Don't be a douche.

I'm watching this game because the Mets are off.

The Yankees have PLENTY of talent and will be absolutely fine. It's April 12.

Oh I completely agree...things will revert to the mean. I am not pumping up the Mets long term, the Yankees are clearly the superior team, but the Yanks do look very much out of sorts
They might be fine

But they are playing baseball like a bunch of assholes. Better change and quick. You can’t win a division in April but you can sure as hell lose one.

No argument from me. Yankees are a better team.
