DJLM and Torres. Guaranteed at least a split, but picking up a win here would be nice. Paxton needs to get locked in soon, hope it starts today.

I live 40 miles from Disney. Heat is a way of life but us northerners never get used to it, though you probably get your share in Charlotte. At Disney, there is little relief from the sun.

Damn, I live down here and trips to Disney are exhausting and in the summer you need to take a break after lunch and go back around 4 pm...you cannot drink enough water.

Oh, and welcome back!
Dude has been raking in AAA Scranton  
GiantJake : 7/7/2019 10:56 am : link
He's no kid, he's 27 and has had a few cups of coffee in the bigs. Switch hitter, plays 3B, 2B, SS and a little OF. Hitting .348 in 50 games at AAA Scranton More walks than K's. Hopefully, he is another useful, experienced, hungry role player available on the Scranton shuttle for the stretch run.

We would go to the parks early in the AM...eat lunch around 11 to beat the crowds, and then about 1 or 2 we would go back to the hotel for pool and/or a nap and then go back in the evening.

Only way to handle the heat. Almost exactly the way we did it. That pool at the hotel is a God send.

Another way to do it. But the lines, the Sun straight up, the Brazilians, the Asians - need relief from it all.

Luis Gil at #3. That was a nightmare trade for the Twins. Gil was a 19 year old IFA who sat 92mph and had missed all of 2016. They liked Jake Cave and were willing to trade a lottery card in Gil to get him. Cave looks to be a AAAA OFer. Great numbers at AA and AAA. Can't do anything in the majors. Gil then went from sitting 92mph to now sitting 98mph with the Yankees and touching 101. His curveball is a spin rate juggernaut and his change has gotten a lot better. He has been he best pitcher in the SAL league and leads the league in ERA and Ks.

The Yankees have a ridiculous amount of talented young pitchers from Latin American in their system but Gil might end up being the best.

Paxton, as seems his usual,

is unprepared to start the game.

And how does a player, 27 y/o, who has played baseball his entire life not know how he has to cover 2nd base, since you know, he is the 2nd base man. Why would you go to 1st base?

And, WTF is he up and Estrada is not?

It's unreal how these umps won't adjust "their" strike zones for a guy who's 6'7". We saw one ump earlier this week who did but he's been the only one I can remember all year who did.

It's supposed to be the batters strike zone not the umps, and I'm all in to bring on the electronic strike zone. So tired of these guys being incompetent.

between innings and not getting tossed, Caripazza has to know he was wrong. Cost the Yankees a run on what would have been a sac fly.

watching Morton  
RasputinPrime : 7/7/2019 2:11 pm : link
I really want to know how the Rays appear to be the only franchise that weren't scared of Morton. He has been insanely valuable.
Paxton must throw 50% of his  
section125 : 7/7/2019 2:23 pm : link
FBs 6 inches inside. It won't get hit, but it won't get any swings either.
i've noticed the team generally  
RasputinPrime : 7/7/2019 2:34 pm : link
swinging at more pitches out of the zone. I wish we had a camera more like the Rays that gives the viewer a cleaner angle to the plate. Much easier to see the spin on the ball and where it actually crosses the plate.

It worked...They got some solid wood on Morton, but could not complete the deal.

As Paxton gives up another leadoff hit.
So tired of struggling against this shitty lineup  
Greg from LI : 7/7/2019 3:02 pm : link
It worked in that instance, but I'm perfectly happy with them going to the pen this early.
