AL East Thread

Do the Steinbrenners sign a check and tell him to fill it in or do they let him leave via free agency?

Giants are undefeated!
And Stanton is about to go on one of his streaks.

Stanton is approximately 0-47 with 54 strikeouts since this post.

 

[catman]

Just curious, are you from Long Island?

That's the only place I've found Yankees/Jets fans. Where I grew up in Westchester it was Mets/Jets, Yankees/Giants

How about Mets/Giants?

Very rare to spot them in the wild

Judge currently tied for 48th with 1994 Bagwell in single season OPS+. That's pretty good company.

One point out of the batting title race. Triple crown watch on in earnest.

Gunnar Henderson does not look overwhelmed at the major league level.

And another good start for Bello. His ERA when he got recalled was 8.47, it's now down to 4.75. I'm really excited to see what he can do in his first full season next year.

 

[bksballer89]

wow

60 HR and sitting in triple crown position.

What a fucking season.

60 HR and sitting in triple crown position.

What a fucking season.

This is incredible. And Stanton gets a walk off grand slam. I was expecting his usual strike out in a big spot. And he's also 6 hits behind leading the AL in hits as well.

 

[Pastafazul]

What comes first. Judge 62nd. Or blowing the division?

 

[Pure Steel]

Stanton is approximately 0-47 with 54 strikeouts since this post.

1 for 48!

 

[obxyankeefan]

1 for 48!

So you are saying he has improved?

I don't think they're blowing the division anymore. There's only 15 games left and they have an 8 game lead in the loss column over the Rays. Yanks won the season series so it's a 9 game lead in the loss for them.
As far as the Jays it's 6 in the loss column and they have 3 games left against each other so the Jays have a shot. But they'd have to play better than they've played all year. The Yanks also just need to win one of the 3 against the Jays and they'll have the season series which is worth another game in the loss column.
The Jays and Rays have 4 games against each other so hopefully they split.

 

[Cyder]

How about Mets/Giants?

It's rare but it happens. Usually it's Mets/Jets/Islander and Yanks/Giants/Rangers.

 

[Pastafazul]

Huckleberry Kaye last night mentions the pirates scout who signed clay Holmes as Bill Mazuroski son , does not mention his first name. I let him know. He took it well.

 

[Pure Steel]

Last night he did, you just have to be patient, he goes on hot streaks when he’s not injured half the time…..
