Chicago has pitched like shit all year and are in second a few games below .500.

Chicago has pitched like shit all year and are in second a few games below .500.

If the current results remain the same, they'll enter the break tied for 2nd with the Cards. Both 5.5 out.

I would be concern as a Cubs fan. Played 88 games. Can't think they're just going to turn on a light switch.

LOL. Somebody forgot to tell the Blue Jays the All-Star break starts Monday. The Astros pounded out five HRs in the 19-1 win to join the Dodgers with 60 wins, a 109-win pace. It's the first time since 1969 that two teams have 60 wins at the All-Star break. Keep this in your back pocket: The team with best regular-season record now gets home-field advantage for the World Series.

Just work a walk Wade. Give Gardy a chance.

Castro can't return faster. It has been a struggle for Wade to say the least. At least we made their closer throw 12 pitches with the top of the order coming up in the bottom of the 9th.

Wade has had some good swings today, with bad luck. But he has also had a couple of 27 bouncers to the SS.

Frazier is still a question mark of what does he do once the league finds a hole in his swing.

Choi reminds me of a Asian Chris Carter.

Yanks must find a 1B if they have any plans at making the playoffs. Tyler Austin is Nick Johnson 2.0

We just need to get healthy and pitching must get better

Nick Johnson I still have a mini Columbus Clippers helmet that Nick autographed.

Yanks end the 1st half by going 0-7-1 in their final 8 series. Been a month since they last won a series.

BTW they start the 2nd half on a 11 game roadtrip which will ultimately decide if they're buyers or sellers come the trade deadline

 

[bksballer89]

Yanks enter the break 3.5 behind the Sox and tied with Tampa for the 2 WC spots with Minnesota and KC right on their ass

Pretty cool

They are 4th in the NL in runs scored and ERA. The defense isn't good, but it isn't nearly as bad as the A's, Jays, Mets or Padres.

That whole Bird situation is absurd. Can the Yankees' front office ever STFU?

Pitchers don't bat in the ASG in an NL park?

They started doing that in 2011

Guess I haven't been paying attention that much lately...Now if only the NL can get with the program and do the same during the regular season/postseason then that would be huge.

Agreed.
