Here's hoping for a whole lot of slap-ass tonight.
Walker works out of some trouble

This narrative about how the Yanks

went on their winning streak with a mobile, small ball lineup and are now losing with their regulars is such lazy nonsense.

Stanton and Judge were monsters during the streak.

Voit, who no one would call mobile, came back from injury and was able to play every day because Rizzo was out with Covid.

Voit was AL player of the week during the streak, slugging .905.

The most significant lineup change that has happened from the winning streak to the present is that Voit is benched since Rizzo came back.

Velaquez made some nice contributions during the streak, good for him.

Yanks are not riding Velazquez and his .531 career OPS to a WS crown. They went back to him for a couple of games, lost those, and then benched him when he made an error that cost a run.

It would help these discussions a lot if people would name the names of the players that the Yanks inexplicably went away from, instead of talking in generalities.

I'm a Mets fan, but yeah, it's horseshit fed to an imaginary casual audience.
Walker has been garbage since the break

Most likely because he barely pitched the last two seasons. But the Mets @braintrust” refuses to skip some starts and let him rest.

Sandy really has to retire. He is quickly entering Sather territory

What the hell happened to Chad Green?

just no chance this BP was going to get this team to a WS.

Javier Báez is 2-3 with a home run and 3 runs scored.

He’s now 32-106 (.301) with 8 home runs and 24 runs scored in 30 games as a Met.

Baez

Good time for one of the worst throws to 1st I've seen in a while.
Chappy didn't blow a save?

I am stunned.

No slap-ass. :(

this night was for you too:

“Fortunately we are playing in our graveyard of a park, so that is helpful,” May said Thursday. “We will keep the
314-foot homers to a minimum.”

.

And I doubt that either NY team will be interested when
he's a free agent. Too inconsistent at the plate with long droughts, too much of a 'look at me' player as well.
His costly error last night proved to be the winning run.
The guy played 2B, in his first couple years in the majors, so no excuses on that part.
As a Yankee fan, I know I don't want him.
