So, that was fun while it lasted Baltimore

Got by with a bunch of homeruns for the last 5 years to cover bad pitching

Now, all the homerun hitters are getting a bit older and less often, and the pitching still sucks

Seems like a wasted era that they never found a way to find a single good pitcher in this mini-run

They need to decide whether to blow it up, or make one last run with this core.

Definitely need to blow it up if you ask me. Start fresh with Bundy, Mancini and Sisco and go from there.

Yanks getting ready to complete this disaster of a west coast trip at 1-6. About the only good thing is they'll return to NYY late tonight/early tomorrow morning in at least a tie for first. Really need to make up for this and go at least 4-2 next week at home.

And that's with being 9-1 in extra inning games this year.

Red Sox 18-9 since they dropped to .500 on May 20th. Yankees 14-13 over that span. Red Sox outscoring opponents 138-108 over their last 27 games. Yankees outscoring opponents 154-100.

Yeah the Yankees losing 4 in a row to the A's isn't good. Wonder if this is the start of a swoon for them or an outlier in an otherwise great season.
