there's no let down after the Red Sox series.
I have a bad feeling about this game  
BigBlueShock : 5/11/2018 5:50 pm : link
Coming off an incredibly intense series with Boston, there has to be some kind of let down. Add to that, they are facing a scrub ass pitcher with an almost 9 era and you can just see the shutout coming from a mile away, lol.

Prove me wrong boys!
I can see us putting up a smooth dozen  
RasputinPrime : 5/11/2018 5:55 pm : link
and steamrolling them. We have a lot of guys that have been slumping and it has to be getting to them. Didi in particular is about ready to get going tonight.
Drury still experiencing symptoms, reports Bryan Hoch.  
bceagle05 : 5/11/2018 5:56 pm : link
Neil Walker's gonna wind up being a very valuable addition to this roster. He'll split time between first and third, depending on how Andujar and Bird are playing. Nice having him around.
Yeah I'm dealing with a concussion

Yankees need to trade for one if they want to compete with the Astros and Red Sox staffs come October. Need to add a #2 guy to go behind Severino.
the Red Sox

pitching staff they can compete with just fine even right now. Behind Sale it's nothing special.

CC
I'd simply move on from Gray if he can't fix it  
DennyInDenville : 5/11/2018 7:41 pm : link
Or send him to the pen for the next 18 months

We need better pitchers and I think we have better pitchers then Gray (German, cessa , Sheffield and more)

I disagree. Porcello was a CY Young winner only two seasons ago and has been solid since joining Boston, and Pomeranz one 17 games last season and seems to do always do well against the Yankees.

This isn't true. Great? No. But his 2015 season was essentially equal to Severino last season.

Gray has mostly sucked since he came to the Yanks, we've been beating that horse to death, but to imply he was average or below in Oakland is just silly

You either dont watch much baseball, or you are just a defeatist.

Gray is having a bad outing. Tanaka is better than Price. Price has colossally disappointed in Boston. So the real comp is:

Sale v. Sevvy
Porcello v. Tanaka
Gray v. Price

Stop whining.

xman : 5/11/2018 7:55 pm : link
but I was wrong. He is ineffective 90% of the time. He kills the pen. He pitches small. Warren is better then him. Package him to a NL club. Good riddance to this stiff.

I really don’t think so, it’s a wash IMO. Sale/Severino is a wash, but I trust zsevy more in the playoffs, Sale seems to fade late in the season. Tanaka almost pitched us to the WS last season so there’s that. And I 100% trust CC over Price in a big game.

Maybe regular season those 3 will grind more wins, but I like our guys, if healthy, come playoff time.
Daaaamn, Gleyber.

We can find someone else to give up 3-4 runs a game by the 3rd inning.
