D-Rob is not missed...Just blew his 2nd straight save in Toronto

Still having a pretty damn good year. Just because Donaldson is on some other shit right now...

But he shouldn't be missed because Miller is a savage

Double for Josh in his first AB at home

Awesome debut for Eduardo Rodriguez. Went 7 2/3.

Was pissed the Red Sox let Miller go instead of Uehara. Really wanted them to keep Miller. But Rodriguez has made significant strides since joining the Sox organization.

The RedSox offense has been simply horrific. Especially with runners in scoring position. It is almost June, the switch has to flip eventually...maybe?! Too many good hitters on this team to not hit.

Is the AL East the weakest division in baseball. I think so!

No sir! The AL West claims that crown. Don't let Houston fool you. They're extremely dependent on the home run and still k a ton. They'll come back to earth soon.

Any rotation that has/had guaranteed spots for Scott Feldman and Roberto Hernandez is a weak one.

Maybe Eovaldi should try working on a sinker. 10 hits in 4 innings so far. And yet, it's only 3-1 A's.

edit: 3-2 A's now. Both teams have 16 hits combined, all of which are singles.

Too many people are buying this team. Keuchel may be for real, but the peripherals on the rest of this team do not suggest sustainability in any way. This team will regress before too long, and hard.

Agreed. And for all the power the Astros have, it's gonna be hard to score very many runs when you have no one on base.

Yanks & Sox went 2-6 in their 4 game sets against the Al west this weekend

 

[tducey]

Yeah, the AL East has disappointed this year. I figured all 5 teams would be above .500 this year, be lucky if we get 1 above .500 at this rate.

 

[bksballer89]

Yankees rocked King Felix

 

[navamind]

Angels vs. Rays











Yeah, I'll be rooting for the asteroid.

 

[tducey]

Big win for the Yanks yesterday, looks like they might be the best team in that division right now.

 

[navamind]

HOW WILL UEHARA BLOW THE WIN FOR BUCHHOLZ?

 

[bksballer89]

Typical Yankees. In the rare good outings from CC this season, the offense never shows up.

Looking like a 2-1 defeat unless they rally in the 9th

 

[bksballer89]

I don't see how didi can be the Yankees SS for a long time considering how poor of a hitter he is.

Wow Stephen freaking drew tied it on a 2 out double

Despite a .191 BABIP, Teixeira currently has a 151 wRC+. His highest wRC+ with the Yankees was in 2009 (142), and he had a .302 BABIP that year.
