NFT: Yankees Game Thread - Angels vs. Yankees - Severino

against the Angels. I do like watching when they play the Angels. Trout is such a good player.

no mercy

at the beginning of the season. His velocity was down and he was getting hit hard. A back to form Kahnle would really help this pen out, which has not lived up to expectations.

A pitcher will be sent down to make room for Bird tomorrow. Not Austin.

Makes sense, who would you rather have on the team...Tyler Austin or Gio Gallegos?! Even with our starting rotation that doesn't go deep besides Sevy...we recently went two weeks where Cole and Hale pitched once or something crazy like that. So they really have to get rid of that 13th pitcher. If anything, with German now in rotation, bring up someone to replace Cole that is a long man. Having a long man to eat up b.s. innings will make carrying 7 relievers fine. Almost all teams carry 7 relievers anyway.

So my previous thread should have said would you rather have Cole or Austin? And a long reliever wouldn't be replacing Cole but either Holder or Shreve. Which probably won't happen since Shreve is out of options and Holder is pitching really well. So that does make it a little dicier. Not having a true long man, or a starting pitching staff that goes deep...does place a greater need on a 8 relievers. But still, 7 man bullpens is something new the past few years...used to be 6. So we really shouldn't need 8. And getting back Kahnle will only help.

Fucking Bob Costas

started by Andujar

Between Walker and Torres they can cover all of his positions.

It seems

the Yanks have had more bad ball/strike calls against them than any other team in baseball so far this season.

Not sure where their source is, doing some googly-moogly, but if that’s right, apparently it’s not just us being homers

Not even close...

I posted this the other night. Judge most no strike zone called strikes in MLB and Yankees most non strike zone called strikes.....stat cast

if hicks didnt stop and took off immediately when he got up, he prob scores....


nice job by torres though, kid is special

I'll take the lead tho

Interesting, thanks. To that note, so far tonight this umps zone has been pretty correct as far as I’ve seen, and the Yanks drew a couple walks bc he wouldn’t give this Angels guy an extra 6 inches

And (IIRC) the Judge thing is crazy 19% vs 16% next highest player (or was it league avg.?)

You either break for home immediately or you don't go. Can't hesitate and then go.

I didn’t think he’d be this good in the field

Might be worth a review though - that was close.

every game. What a throw, Sanchez catches it 6 inches off the ground.

All Rise!

Sanchez holding on was not a given there

Not only does he have a bazooka, he’s very accurate

He's really labored in the first 3 innings. How does his stuff look?

He's such a complete player.

A little wild. Although the walk to Trout was basically intentional

His breaking stuff is off. FB is great. Trouble throwing the slider for strikes.

to Trout and Ohtani..

Oh well. Trout is a beast.

Let's get a rally going - bottom of the order is up, after all.

Pffft. Needed up higher. Blew the 1st one past him and it was up. 2nd one was a touch lower, but not a bad pitch.

on the bases, and in the field.

Stanton heats up a little.

worked last year.
This year, meh.

He's hitting .314/.388/.643 in May

His hot streaks aren't ordinary hot streaks.

Haha, he flicked that on a dime

The way he played that I thought he was conceding the double. Just tossed it over to Didi.

.

Wow. He’s good at baseball.

stays relaxed and puts it on target

Gotta do better than that
