Yanks up 3-0, bottom 1. DIDI with a 3 run bomb to start the game off.

Doesn't change my thinking or comfort level at all with him being the pitcher tonight following last night's loss.

I know, I just hate when that happens. Pet peeve of mine.
I hear ya Dave

Same here.

Shut down innings are big for me too, and kind of why I like CC after a loss. He's been a shut the losing down pitcher.
Happy saturday guys

Thanks DC and right back at ya.

It's been a good one here today and now just kicking back enjoying the game. A Yankee win tonight will add to a pretty good day.

I like Cone but these guys suck.

Half an inning about how Judge doesn't show emotion. False.

Half an inning about Clevinger's Moana cleats.

Another half inning about how Machado doesn't fit the Yanks and that they think he'll play 1B or DH. False.

Cone is too nice to make them realize how dumb that was.
Boone gets tossed.

Haha, I was thinking the same thing.

Judge shows plenty of emotion. He just doesn't show it when he does something. It's when his teammates do something that he lets loose.

As for Machado, they failed to mention how he would fit perfect really easy by just sending Andujar down to AAA if they wanted to make that deal.

Did Romine just completely drop that ball? Happened so fast I missed it...
That really sucks for CC  
illmatic : 7/14/2018 9:08 pm : link
I feel bad for him. He should have been out of it. Should have been a very good start on the road against a very good team, lining up for a potential win... instead he leaves with the game tied.

Bird made a poor throw home. Romine did drop it but it didn't matter.

That's a triple. Romine made it to 3rd without anyone committing an error to help him (unless there was an error in the outfield while fielding the ball)

Ah, no problem. I guess they ruled that an error too, would make sense

Those three hitters aren't scrubs, that's one of the best 2-3-4 trios in baseball he just buzzed through

The walks are high but at the same time it shows something positive. He has always been a mental midget with runners on base. It totally threw him off his game. So, as awesome as those numbers have been the bigger thing to me is that having a runner on base is not bother him anymore which was really his biggest weakness to me.
Andujar has to get out of the way there

That's Romine's ball. Anything behind the plate is the catcher's

Dave in Hoboken : 7/14/2018 10:20 pm : link
Love the guy, but he's been balls in the field tonight.
Hopefully Chapman doesn't have issues with his release point  
dpinzow : 7/14/2018 10:22 pm : link
He's thrown 8 pitches and 6 of them have darted into the dirt
JP Morosi has the Yanks and Angels  
bigbluehoya : 7/14/2018 10:24 pm : link
Discussing Tyler Skaggs and/or Andrew Heaney.

Both lefty, both 27 years old, 2 and 3 arb years left, respectively. And both have good numbers and pretty nice peripherals.

Could be a decent fit. Keep in mind Angels GM Eppler came from the Yanks org.

Ballgame over Yankees win. Great job by the pen after that dodgy 6th inning.

I'd LOVE Skaggs in the Bronx. Would be the third or fourth starter in a playoff rotation and a strong one
BIG WIN!

Coming into Cleveland  
bigbluehoya : 7/14/2018 10:28 pm : link
For a 4 game set against a very good team before the break was daunting, especially with the way Boston is playing.

Going into Sunday with a split being the downside is a job well done so far. But let’s take the damn thing.
These games are a grind  
dune69 : 7/14/2018 10:36 pm : link
we need the break. Hopefully healthy on the other side of the break. It will be very interesting over the next couple of weeks to the trade deadline. We know Cash will act.
Great win, let’s take 3 of 4 tomorrow!  
mfsd : 7/14/2018 10:38 pm : link
Chapman’s been great so far this season. Even when he doesn’t have quite his best command like tonight, he knows how to suck it up and come up with big pitches when it counts.

Just peeked at his stat line, he’s only given up 6 runs all season. His only blown save was giving up a game tying run against Cleveland May 4, in a game the Yanks still won. Amazing.
Skaggs does look like he'd be a great get.

I really like Skaggs  
bigbluehoya : 7/14/2018 10:53 pm : link
I don’t get to watch a TON of non-NYY games, but I do have the MLB package (thanks TMobile!) and I own Skaggs in a dynasty fantasy baseball league, so I’ve watched a little of him.

I’ve been an advocate of making the really big splash for a deGrom/Syndergaard/MadBum. I still am. But it takes two to tango, and those names may simply not be available (for anything other than an embarrassment of riches).

I hate MOST of the discussed fallbacks (Happ, Hamels, et al). I’d really like either of these two LAA guys. They won’t be cheap, and they shouldn’t be.
Agreed...not cheap, but worth it.

You can never be sure.

The peripherals would seem to indicate it isn’t pure “luck”...his luck seems to be a bit of a push on balance; high BABIP but a very low HR/FB rate.

He’s probably not a 2-handle ERA guy for an extended stretch...few are. But he’s only 27, and low 3’s doesn’t seem out of reach.

Fair point. Just seems like an incredibly drastic drop in ERA from last year to this one.
