NFT: Indians at Yankees GDT 8/15

Hopefully he keeps building and can contribute when ready. Getting a healthy, effective Sevy back would be excellent.

We've been rightly triumphant about how well Luke Voit has played for the Yankees, but Gio Gallegos has quietly been dominant for the Cardinals this year. 55 IP, .727 WHIP, 76 Ks, 1.96 ERA, 2.40 FIP. The rare deal that works out for both teams.

Francisco Lindor (S) SS
Greg Allen (S) CF
Carlos Santana (S) 1B
Yasiel Puig (R) RF
Jose Ramirez (S) 3B
Jason Kipnis (L) 2B
Franmil Reyes (R) DH
Tyler Naquin (L) LF
Roberto Perez (R) C

Luis Severino says he expect to face three hitters on Sunday � like a sim inning. Then he expects to head to Tampa to throw a sim game and then start rehab games.

Says he thinks he can make first MLB start at as little as 60 pitches and build from there. #Yankees

With Domingo Germ�n now at 116 IP this year, the #Yankees don�t anticipate needing to place a hard innings cap on him. He won�t have restrictions in October. He spent more than 3 weeks on the injured list, which already slowed the odometer. @MLB @MLBNetwork

Cleveland just lost 2 out of 3 to a Boston team that was dead as a door nail going into that series. This series isn't going to show or prove anything.

Yeah, unless we lose the series and all the pessimists come crawling out.

They didn't sweep the Yankees. They won 3 of 4. They also followed that series by losing 7 straight games. The Sox also split 6 games in Fenway against 2 teams with 0.0% chance of making the postseason.

Cleveland is a team in flux. They could come in here flat or they could come in here like this is a playoff series.

IDK.....beating good teams is always a plus, if for no other reason than you don�t want to give the other guys a feeling that they can come into your home and kick sand on you.

Cleveland did lose 2/3 from Boston by Boston is still a good team. cleveland is 6-4 in last 10.

True, but it's not going to prove anything about the Yankees. The Yankees have proven who they are over 120 games.

Would you agree there are 4 teams in tier one in the AL....Yanks, Astros, Twinkies, and Indians? I know you can argue, actually only two teams in tier one and two in tier two...either way, when one of those other 3 teams come knocking on your door, I think it is very important you punch them in the mouth and send them off thinking....I hope we don�t play these guys in the playoffs, I�d rather face the Astros.

Like I previously said, you don�t want to give them any feeling of confidence that they can beat NY so I�d rather play them instead of the Astros.

Cleveland is not Baltimore. I am looking forward to this series.

them. Carlos freakin' Correa is batting 7th in their order now and Gurriel, one of the hottest AL hitters in the 2nd half, is batting 8th. They have 2 ace pitchers.

I agree, but I didn�t expect a Yankees fan to agree. After all, you have a better record with all your injuries. I was just trying to be nice and not antagonistic toward Yankee fans here.

PS. Don�t they have 3 ace pitchers now?

You come in here and troll using the same dumb argument every week.

They have 3 ace pitchers and what cannot be argued is the best top to bottom 25 in baseball right now.

That said, F them. I want them in the playoffs because this team is beating everyone this year. Tauchman and Urshela are going to hoist this team up baby!

is Ed Encarnaci�n from returning?

I'll believe it when I see it in the postseason, although the same argument could be made about Cole.


Chad Green can't throw strikes to or get a .240 hitter out. Gotta do better than that.

F Flaherty.

Probably somewhere in the vicinity of 3 weeks. .

not working today even with a generous strike zone.

of all-time.

with those sliders.

missed that heater. Nice running action.

Very big strikeout. DP please.

...

Fuck.

.

Embarrassing performance by Green.

...

Inauspicious little fucker, isn�t it?

There are still 27 outs to go, and it looks like the Indians have a scrub pitcher going.

This is the correct role for Loaisiga. I think he will thrive doing this.

Hooray!

Lol... spoke too soon.

Torres really needed to get that out... those 2 are kind of on him.

can they not throw awful pitches afterwards?

I see a bad result up there. Green, I gather.

our damn pitching continues to be unprepared at the start of games. No reason this lineup shats a 7 spot.

Judge was late on a 91mph pitch from Plutko.

he gets umped. The giant is lost right now.

foul by a couple feet. Ugh.

Everyone is on Pluto today except Judgey.

Judge missed a nothing fastball. Gio saw it so quickly he was out in front of it and hammered it.

Gio is totally locked in.
