NFT: Yankees at Orioles GDT 7:05PM 7/30

Jints in Carolina : 7/30/2020 2:27 pm
I will post lineups when available.

Happ vs. Means

Quote:
Simply put, the New York Yankees have the Baltimore Orioles' number.

The Yankees dropped two of the first three to the Orioles last year, then took 16 head-to-head matchups in a row.

New York rolled to a 9-3 victory in Baltimore on Wednesday in the teams' first meeting of the season, running the streak to 17 games ahead of the series finale on Thursday.

Orioles left-hander John Means is scheduled to come off the 10-day injured list to make his first start of the season. He would have drawn the Opening Day assignment were it not for arm fatigue.

The Orioles will need to make a pregame move to get Means on the active roster.

Means was a big surprise for the Orioles last season, making the All-Star Game and finishing 12-11 with a 3.60 ERA. He is 1-2 with a 7.62 career ERA versus the Yankees in five games (two starts).

Means was one of the two Orioles pitchers to get victories against the Yankees in 2019. He was the last, in fact, earning a 7-5 decision on March 31, when he allowed one run in 3 1/3 innings of relief. The losing pitcher that day was J.A. Happ, who coincidentally will start for New York on Thursday, also in his first game of 2020.

Happ had his first turn in the rotation skipped when the Yankees' series against the Phillies was scrapped earlier this week. Philadelphia had been the site of Miami's first series of the season before the Marlins were overrun with a coronavirus outbreak.

Happ has a 9-7 record with a 3.60 ERA in 25 career appearances (24 starts) against the Orioles.

Hard to say. It looks violent on the radar, but moving fast. There is a gap and then more behind the first wave.

Hard to say with that info. A contusion is a bruise so it depends on how bad it is. Could miss 1 game or a couple of weeks.
ugh - Voit and Sanchez K

Very curious move pushing Loasiga in 3 innings. Kahnle and Chad Green hadn't pitched since Sunday.
Is there something going on with Kahnle or Britton?

HUGE bomb by Judge. This would have been a brutal loss...have to finish it off now
Orioles announcers are bitching about the call  
Greg from LI : 7/30/2020 11:37 pm : link
On the previous pitch....when a guy hasn't hit a spot all inning, no shit he's not going to get a borderline call.
Wade was on deck?

El Duque would've never let Judge even swing the bat.

That sure brings back memories - El Duque would walk the bases loaded in search of a matchup he liked.
The previous pitch was a ball IMO.

I agree but it's a pitch we've seen called a strike on Judge too often. I'm glad at least one ump adjusted his strike zone to account for Judge's height.

I will say the last pitch of the game was low and not a strike but I'll take it.
did they just say that Suzyn Waldman

Players may be kneeling so as to puke.
Kahnle was “unavailable”...

Per Boone. More details tomorrow. I don’t like that...

Agree - did not sound good.

Gleyber day to day, though - could have been worse.
Nice win,  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/31/2020 1:03 am : link
lets keep racking up these divisional wins.
here's my prediction for tonight's lineup -  
Del Shofner : 7/31/2020 7:21 am : link
Gleyber sits - based on his postgame interview, it might just be one game, but he sits tonight. The brain trust wants three left bats against Boston's RHP, and prefers them batting 3-6-9. They don't want Gardy batting in the 6 hole. Thus:

DJ - 2b
Judge - RF
Hicks - CF
Stanton - DH
Voit - 1B
Tauchman - LF
Gary - C
Gio - 3b
Wade - SS

Ford could play instead of Voit but I think they want Voit to heat up and based on last night that's not crazy.

Yup. One of the goals of the new catcher's crouch they're using is to better frame borderline pitches and get called strikes, especially low ones. Seems to be working so far with Sanchez.

He's been pretty smooth behind the plate overall so far, nice to see considering he's not hitting at all so far

Del, Gardy will start in LF. They are not sitting him in his last home opener, IMHO. They may bat him 6th or bump Sanchez to 6th and Gardy to 7th.
They snatched victory  
Carson53 : 7/31/2020 8:00 am : link
from the jaws of defeat, Judgey saved the day.
I was wondering why Kahnle didn't pitch the 8th inning,
now I know, I think? I am wondering what's going on there,
Boone said more details coming on Friday. Have to beat up
on the Sawx pitching staff. They won't see Eovaldi in this series. He has given them some trouble in the past.

Yeah, you're probably right. But if Gardy doesn't warm up a little, I think Tauchman starts getting some burn. He showed enough last year to earn it, plus they have to start thinking of the post-Gardy future.

He will be given plenty of rope. So will Gary. I'm not sure Gardy can get the high FB anymore. He looked late in Washington. His eye is a bit off too.

Yes, need to look post Gardy and Tauchman fits the bill. Would not surprise me to see diminished role as the year progresses

Don't think so, X-Rays were negative, just a bone bruise.
He might miss a day or two according to Boone.
Gleyber was on the postgame too -  
Del Shofner : 7/31/2020 8:44 am : link
he sounded like he wanted to play tonight but I don't think that's going to happen. It's his right elbow and he said what it affects is his throwing.

X-rays were negative and it's just a bruise, but it sounds like one or two games off is the likely result.
rewatching video of Judge's big HR  
mfsd : 7/31/2020 8:50 am : link
as weird as it is with no fans, it was really cool to hear the sudden shouts from the Yanks dugout the moment he hit it
When Judge hit his no doubt homer last night  
MadPlaid : 7/31/2020 8:50 am : link
You could clearly hear the guys in the dugout cheer. That’s something, under normal circumstances, you could never do. Or at least not be able to discern it from the crowd noise. I liked it.

We usually agree on most things Yankees section but I have to disagree with you here on Gardy. In a normal season yes, maybe they do give him plenty of rope but not in this sprint of a season.

Especially when they have a real good glove and lefty bat in Tauchman, and a Righty bat in Miggy both pushing him for ab's.

There's really no time to give guys rope if there's reliable backups. That's where I think Gary gets a break, but not Gardy.

Yea heard that too postgame, I guess that answers part of the question in my post. However he still had Chad Green available to pitch the 8th. Sunday Loasiga looked great for 2 innings as well in Washington then gave up the bomb in the 3rd. Oh well alls well that ends well thanks to Judge.
