AL East Thread

The Yankees have posted their lineup for tonight!

View attachment 272076

Saddest part is that line-up is better than what they're actually running out there tonight, where we've got a .680 OPS hitting 2nd and a .588 OPS hitting 5th.

Stanton plays every other game now, I guess.

That lineup is “Aaron Judge and pray for rain”. It’s crazy. He’s probably near the top of the list for MVP just because that team is still right in the mix and nobody else is hitting.

Aside from Taillon, I think their starting rotation and pen probably deserve the MVP.

Chris Gittens (NYY), Josh Lowe (TBR) and Gabriel Moreno (TOR) get some love.

Vlad Jr. is pretty good.
