Rest is everything for Tanaka. His production falls off as pitch count rises. Sevy is a power guy. He typically gets stronger as game goes on. I don't mind this.

i am just asking a question did i say it didnt work? take a breathe
No problem with Sevy starting the 5th....  
Tesla : 10/15/2019 6:14 pm : link
but leaving him in to face Bregman was asking for serious trouble. Could have been a lot worse than a walk there.
Sevey To Me  
Percy : 10/15/2019 6:16 pm : link
Pitched badly -- badly enough to lose. But he's not who's losing it. The would-be hitters are. They are not getting it done. Big 0 up there is on them, not Sevy.
Green!  
BleedBlue : 10/15/2019 6:18 pm : link
He is so good.

He should pitch a couple of innings here, don't pull him too quick boone

Agreed. When you're 3 hitter isn't doing shit it's pretty simple, he shouldn't be batting 3rd. I expected better ABs from EE and Sanchez too


We are gonna get some runs here tho
I would have tried to make that top half of the

That was ball 2
This lineup is infinitely better  
illmatic : 10/15/2019 6:22 pm : link
when they're working deep into counts. It feels like nothing good ever happens when they're swinging just 2 or 3 pitches into the at bat.
Gotta take some pitches  
bubba0825 : 10/15/2019 6:22 pm : link
To see if he lost any control
Gardner  
BleedBlue : 10/15/2019 6:23 pm : link
Batting third is fucking inexcusable
Dude isn't a 3 hitter at all
....  
BleedBlue : 10/15/2019 6:25 pm : link
Nice adjustment by EE. Seeing more pitches
Holy shit  
illmatic : 10/15/2019 6:25 pm : link
EE hit a double. This means something. This is our game.
You can't call both..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 10/15/2019 6:25 pm : link
a high strike to Gardner and the low strike to Edwin.

But a great hit. Pitch count is rising!
So this ump  
Eman11 : 10/15/2019 6:25 pm : link
Is giving Cole the high strike on Gardner and two low ones on EE.
Cole

He may make a mistake here
Have a bad feeling....

we are about to get screwed by this ump.
We'll..

be into the bullpen possibly next inning.
....  
BleedBlue : 10/15/2019 6:31 pm : link
This right here is why Torres should be 3 hitter. He sees pitches. He is a pro hitter.
We might push a run or two across in first if he batting third



Now Didi....take some pitches
Didi, if you swing at the first or second pitch  
illmatic : 10/15/2019 6:31 pm : link
it better land in the stands. So help me baby jesus.
Wow..

I would have taken a pitch. He is clearly laboring he would have served a softer pitch

FatMan in Charlotte : 10/15/2019 6:32 pm : link
the delay has no impact on Cole. You never know when a pitcher's arm tightens a little.
Goddamn.  
bceagle05 : 10/15/2019 6:32 pm : link
These games are fucking torture.
How did that ball not get out??  
nyjuggernaut2 : 10/15/2019 6:33 pm : link
Ugh!
Didi is garbage right now  
illmatic : 10/15/2019 6:34 pm : link
That only looked somewhat acceptable because it's Yankee Stadium. That's a routine out and a god awful at bat in any other stadium. We need to see some lineup changes going forward.
The 4 feet Did missed that HR by...

Didn't he specifically say the delay does impact him and takes away a potential extra inning that he could throw?
Where’s Jeffrey Maier

Yes, he has been garbage lately and that was yet another shitty at bat from him. Tell me why he's not and why it wasn't, though.

Just to be clear, do you like the lineup or not? You haven't really been clear on this.

Not a routine out in the Astros own ballpark. Hell, that ball may have gone out in Houston. Right center very similar dimension wise, and weather playing a role.

Cole thought it was out off the bat. That ball just died.

Maldonado ball just died as well.
He was about 5 feet from taking the lead  
Greg from LI : 10/15/2019 6:39 pm : link

I thought he said that it isn't an issue because it wasn't like a rain delay. It was only a half hour where he said after about 45 minutes you might start to experience issues. I know that when I pitched, long innings would cause me to keep my arm warm, so 30 minutes isn't insignificant.
He hit the ball  
MookGiants : 10/15/2019 6:40 pm : link
343 feet and 100+ mph off the bat.

Cole 100% thought it was gone.

That was the kind of swing you want to have on the 1st pitch.

Keep digging in you nitwit
Balls aren't traveling like they were regular season  
adamg : 10/15/2019 6:40 pm : link
Anyone else seeing that? The weather that bad?
Didi swung at a FB over the middle of the plate....  
Tesla : 10/15/2019 6:40 pm : link
if het let's that the count is 0-1, and he likely does not get a pitch that good to hit for the rest of the AB.

It was a good AB, he just got under it by a millimeter. And some idiots want him benched because of it.

that nearly gives the team a lead is a shitty at bat??

That's specifically the reason you can make a case to swing early against Cole. You might get a pitch to drive. DiDi just missed that.
Lindsey Adler...

(who covers Yanks for the Athletic) is convinced they changed balls for postseason. I don't know if that would even be possible. Anybody else making this claim?
Even Didi didn't think it was gone  
illmatic : 10/15/2019 6:43 pm : link
and he knows the park better than anyone. You can see he was just hoping it was. But it doesn't matter. It's another poor one pitch at bat but I guess I'm wrong about that. The fan police are here to tell us what to think.
