Dirt will love her.....

Kahnle hitting 98 last night in Scranton, and Bird hit another HR.

Looks like Kahnle will be added for tomorrow night, and Bird on Saturday.

Also doesn't help that CC & German been awful.

Having those 2 B2B in the rotation may need to change fast to help the pen.

Can't have those guys going B2B and barely giving us 5 IP

The Angels are going to push Shohei Ohtani’s next start back for “workload management,” so he won’t pitch Sunday opposite Masahiro Tanaka, according to Mike Scioscia.

Too bad.. Was looking forward to the Japan on Japan action.

David Robertson looks 35
Chad Green looks like a one year wonder
Betances cant be trusted

Betances is fine for an inning it seems, when they try to push him beyond that the wheels come off.

I think they have to be looking at adding a starter. Lord knows they have the chips. Looking increasingly unlikely they're going to be able to count on Sabathia long term this season. Also haven't heard anything at all on Monty's re-hab..still hoping not to see that he's making a visit to Dr Andews.

Sheffield back yet?

Sheffield back yet?

Yup, started last night. On a pitch count, so only 4 innings, but 4 very good innings.

Scattered 3 hits, walked 1, K'ed 5, no runs.

BTW, that account is a fantastic (and essential) follow for any Yankee fan on twitter. You're welcome.

The River Ave Blues writers are quite good. Pinstripe Alley's pretty good too.

Reminds me of that one great season out of the pen for Phil Hughes

That straight fastball ain't fooling anyone this season

he has a 2.54 ERA with identical FIP and xFIP. looks pretty good to me.

Yanks should sell high on Tyler Austin, package him with a few more mid level prospects for Cole Hamels. That dude can still pitch and Texas won't be playing October baseball

LOL

Swihart and Moreland

Great day for the Yankees

 

[nynasty]

Wow. I guess they had to do something, as he was well on his way to triggering the $22M option.

I wonder how that works if another team picks him up at the minimum and he hits the PA. Who would pay?
