got 13 outs from their starter and somehow only had to use 2 relievers after that in a do or die game.

What a ride this has already been.
Well, it's over now

Real happy for this young team  
dune69 : 10/12/2017 12:16 am : link
we struggled with their veteran pitching but we pitched great and our guys don't quit. Plenty of clutch hits.

Hope our bats break out against Houston.

Win or lose, this has been a fun year.
Looks Like I Don't Get Any Sleep...

Lindor DP might've been the play of the game. Robby got out of that clusterfuck in just 2 pitches.

awesome.....I don't have SNY and I can't get the Yankees postgame on their own channel.
Great job by Girardi to keep the team focused

...Great win. Huge actually.
As Clyde Frazier would say: Heroes abound for the Yanks!  
Stu11 : 10/12/2017 12:21 am : link
-Robertson comes in for the 2nd time in an elimination game with no margin for error whatsoever and gives us 2+

-Obviously Sir Didi hitting the CY Young winner around like he's was a kid being pitched to by his dad in a father-son game

-The big fella I know he ran out of gas in the 5th but set the tone for 4+ pitching lights out ball

-Gardy with the best Yankee AB in the last 5 years or so (and 3 hits on the night)
-Chappy of course closing it out, I give a big assist to Kahnle too because his 6 out performance in game 4 allowed Chappy that pivotal extra day off to be fresh for 30+ pitches tonight

On to Houston baby!

Yup, he's been in the dugout as well this series, at least at the Stadium.
I wonder  
MookGiants : 10/12/2017 12:27 am : link
what the rotation will look like.

Gray likely game 1. I'd go Severino game 2 on normal rest especially with Tanaka's numbers on the road. Tanaka game 3, CC 4.
Props to Aaron Hicks too.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 10/12/2017 12:28 am : link
He had a hit each game in a series in which both teams hit under .200. For a guy with no rehab, he went from off the DL to starting CF mighty quick.

Bingo. I know Verlander is going game 1, but I would really start Romine and let Gary DH. The DHs aren't doing shit and Gray is way more comfortable with Romine. I have zero confidence in Gray pitching a good game with Gary.

Yes I agree with that rotation Mook. Don't want Tanaka pitching in that pinball machine of a ballpark. I like the idea of Sevi as the potential stopper in game 2 if we lose game 1.

I'd bet on Tanaka, Severino, CC, Gray, Tanaka, Severino, CC.

Maybe have Gray pitch a short simulated game tomorrow to keep him sharp.

yup add Hicks to my list too. He was solid all series and in the middle of much of the offense. I wonder if we get the running game going a bit more next series. Maybe we get on base more and the Houston C's don't have near the arms the Cleveland ones did.

Even better, although I think Joe would be really tempted to use Holliday as a DH versus a lefty.

Since the 2009 College World Series when he pulled a ridiculous Houdini act to get out of jams repeatedly for 3 extra innings as Arkansas beat UVA in a game they had no business winning. Want to beat that bastard so bad, I can taste it.

BTW, feels sweet to finally pay Francona back for 2004.

PaulBlakeTSU : 10/12/2017 12:41 am : link
and two things about ARod are clear

1. He loves the Yankees and being a Yankee immensely.
2. He is already a fantastic baseball analyst.

While I'd like to see him work for the Yankees in a player development role, I could see him carving out a long broadcasting career.

Yep. And he has a ton of money. And he's dating Jennifer Lopez, who still looks like she's 30.

What a life.
Agreed, Paul

He's great in the studio but I do hope he chooses to play more of a role in player development for the Yankees.

I think Holliday will be active for the ALCS  
Stu11 : 10/12/2017 12:51 am : link
just looked it up he hits both Morton and Liriano(might see him in long relief) well. Honestly I would be tempted to go with Austin over Headley
Anyhooooo  
Greg from LI : 10/12/2017 12:53 am : link
Very different kind of series coming up. From facing a great pitching staff, now they have to vanquish a great lineup.

Ellsbury likely stays on the roster for pinchrunning and a DH platoon. Much as I'd like to see Headley go, I suspect that the lack of other IF options saves him. There's no way that Torreyes is their only backup infielder.

So that leaves Holliday. Wonder if they give Red Thunder or Austin the nod.

Beating the Indians in the '98 ALCS was actually more satisfying to me than even the World Series for that reason. I was absolutely dying for revenge for '97. It was my favorite series win of the dynasty run.

Here's a fun stat - Lindor and Ramirez were a combined 4-38.

Still don't see the need for two starters in the pen - drop either Montgomery or Garcia for another bat.
