Well I guess we will  
section125 : 10/19/2024 6:13 pm : link
see if Boone has guessed correctly on the batting order.
Stanton behind Judge  
tommcd66 : 10/19/2024 6:20 pm : link
Yay! Let’s put them away tonight.
For the life of me  
Roto_Wizard : 10/19/2024 6:20 pm : link
I can’t understand why Jazz is in this lineup. Hes batting sub-.135 this series, and has been an instant-out.
Manager figures he is protection  
xman : 10/19/2024 6:22 pm : link
for Stanton
Putting a positive spin on the lack of L-R-L-R  
Mike from SI : 10/19/2024 6:34 pm : link
if there's one of those lefties I trust to put forth competitive at-bats against a lefty, it's Rizzo.

Regardless, way less pitchers fucking around with Judge with Stanton behind him. Now Judge needs to be a little more patient and also recognize that they are throwing him a pretty small % of fastballs.

Wrapping this up tonight would be huge, especially if NLDS goes 7. Cleveland's crowd gonna be over the top, this should be big!
let's get this

Sweep the leg

So yesterday it was so important to lefty-righty  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 7:26 pm : link
And today he doubles up on the lefties. Explain that to me?

Probably just to annoy you. Does anyone enjoy watching the game or just enjoy second guessing lineup decisions?
I think Boone obviously  
mfsd : 10/19/2024 7:40 pm : link
reads BBI, noted the vigorous debate about his lineup choices, and made the recommended changes.
I swear...  
Jim in Tampa : 10/19/2024 7:56 pm : link
if the Yanks win the pennant and go on to take the World Series, someone on this board will criticize Boone for the way he’s holding the championship trophy.
Good luck tonight, fellas.

Let’s win the pennant.

Does he lift with his legs?
And for the record, that's not criticizing Boone  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 8:09 pm : link
After all, I called for Stanton in the cleanup role. I just don't get the quick flip flop in philosophy. That means yesterday wasn't about lefty-righty as so many here said. It's just the lineup he (or the analysts) wanted.
Let's go Yankees  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 8:10 pm : link
Get it done tonight so Cole is rested and can go 3 times in the WS if necessary.
Get  
section125 : 10/19/2024 8:10 pm : link
it done!
Pretty aggressive there, Mr. Rojas.

I don't blame him for sending Torres  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 8:14 pm : link
You can certainly argue holding him with Judge coming up. But, I think I'd take that chance also.

Rather have 2nd and 3rd nobody out for Judge…who just got hit
I did not like the send when it happened.  
Mike from SI : 10/19/2024 8:19 pm : link
But like you guys say, that took the absolute perfect 94 mph throw. So what do I know. (Vast majority of the time you do not get a throw that good.)

I didn't think it would (should?) be that close.

That was a hat tip play, i don't mind the send.
2 hits, 2 hit batmen, zero runs  
Bramton1 : 10/19/2024 8:22 pm : link
That is concerning.
even the caoches  
section125 : 10/19/2024 8:22 pm : link
are bad on the bases
can't believe  
RasputinPrime : 10/19/2024 8:22 pm : link
we didn't get one in.

We did get to Bibee who doesn't look like he is going to go deep.

He only threw about 18/19 pitches. I believe they only want 12 outs from him.

That's been this offense. A lot of opportunities wasted. They also make a lot of opportunities, so score eventually. I still think it was a good inning. They have to hope Bibee doesn't settle in after getting out of it.
Cleveland has the vaunted penqBut, the Yankees have gotten to  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 8:25 pm : link
them, especially Clase. So, just keep games close and take them out.
Good job by Rodon and Wells  
Matt M. : 10/19/2024 8:27 pm : link
to keep Kwan off the bases to start. I like when Rodon goes right after guys. No nibbling.
Jazz plays a good

Nice start, Carlos!  
bceagle05 : 10/19/2024 8:30 pm : link
Sucks seeing Rizzo catch throws with two hands - those fingers must be killing him.

Not really - he just has a very good arm. He makes a lot of mistakes and allows the ball to play him at times. He also takes too long to make his throw on occasion.
He has potential and probably will work in the offseason. He absolutely has talent to be a star there.

Fair points. I don't really worry about it when the ball is hit to him though. Honestly sometimes I'm relieved when it's him grabbing it
Bibee has better stuff

tonight than last game.
Wow, fatso Nalor  
section125 : 10/19/2024 8:42 pm : link
gets an off the end of the bat infield single
The Naylor brothers

double-teaming us.
Too many FBs  
section125 : 10/19/2024 8:50 pm : link
to skinny Nalor. Bad pitch selection by Wells. Should have thrown more sliders......0-1
Couldn’t put him away

Not going to rely on Rodon for many innings.

Stupid pitch selection...should have been a slider on the 3-2(and on a few others). Nailor was zeroed in on the FB.

Looks like he’s hung a coupls of curves. I think we’ll get to him.

He's in a rhythm now
you have to jump on pitchers  
RasputinPrime : 10/19/2024 9:00 pm : link
when they are on the ropes. We let him off them and he's just cutting through everyone in the lineup now.

Judge is chasing more than ever.
WTF is wrong with Judge?  
section125 : 10/19/2024 9:02 pm : link
How many times is he going to swing at balls? Every post season game he goes up swinging at sliders down and away. If he just puts the bat on his shoulder he'd walk...

Time to watch Texas/Georgia.
