MLB Daily Thread: 08/15/17: Yanks take 1st game of subway series;

[PolarVortex]

So what's the record for consecutive games with a strikeout? Asking for a friend.

They should just have him pinch hit late in every game until the streak gets stopped. But Cashman is going to keep doing it again all the way to 37. Judge is more mind-fucked than Mike Zunino right now, and that is a very high level of mindfuckery.

MLB is on pace for just 633 one-run games, the lowest total since 1990 when there were 4 fewer teams. Only 26.06% of games this year have been decided by 1 run, the lowest percentage ever.

I like how there is one game in there where he came on just as a pinch-hitter.

Extra work starts to pay off for Aaron Judge

I'd like to see his post ASG splits, left/right and home/away. The sites I go to only show his overall pre and post splits and his seasonal L/R, H/A.

Can't imagine what his post ASG stats are on the road against lefties. Gotta be ugly.

20 plate appearance, .000/.250/.000, 5 walks (2 intentional), 7 strike outs.

Judge doesn't have a hit (home or away) against a left-handed pitcher since he singled against Brent Suter on July 8th.

Ouch.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Judge hit his 40th HR on his 587th plate appearance
Sanchez hit his 40th HR on his 588th plate appearance

I bet they gave each other handys in the shower after the game to celebrate.

Well yeah that would be the considerate thing to do.

Sweep the twins for me. Thanks

Yankees suck

Now you get it

 

[navamind]

I see Manny Machado is still prettt good

Yeah, it's about time he started hitting. He killed me in fantasy the first three months.

 

[navamind]

Where the fuck did the Angels come from?

Who even pitches for that team?

Aces like Jesse Chavez, JC Ramirez, Ricky Nolasco and Parker Bridwell. They did get Skaggs back too.

‘Ungodly’ Joey Votto forces Cubs to think outside the box with four-outfielder shift

 

[PolarVortex]

Carrying on the tradition set by Jeter and Posada. However, their rendezvous occurred in a hot tub, so the legend goes.

36! Judge gets to tie and break the record this weekend at Fenway.

De Grom tonight, so thats a lock....Last night vs the atrocious Montero was his chance to break it

Joe Maddon re-inventing the game really starts to get me sick

Votto doubled by the way

Still hasnt been moved from the 3 spot in the lineup

Dont know whether to be sickened by that, or conclude that its the right thing to do

He is getting his walks. More now than ever actually. Had 18 walks in July but already with 11 walks halfway into August.
