German is wierd...Results arent there, but he looks like he has some nasty stuff sometimes

Probably a guy that needs more time in the minors, wouldnt surprised me if he becomes a solid releiever at some point

He probably just isn't quite ready yet. Having him in the pen where he could give us some length wouldn't be a bad thing. I'd like to see them eventually drop back down to 12 pitchers and keep an extra bench player. Later i the year when guys are dinged up they made need the extra body

Think an Austin for Torryes swap will happen soon, this team misses Torryes, Judge gives him fake high fives

Austin is not needed with Walker fully capable of spelling Bird

I agree. Austin's also been pretty bad lately so it would make sense.

Boone will make the mistake of giving him a start tonight against a Righty, where he is lost

Probably put Walker at 3rd and sit Andujar

With a double header it's usually all hands on deck so I expect to see him out there. They only have 4 guys on the bench. I heard they might sit DD and give Torres a start at SS.

Orioles’ Buck Showalter likes his guys too much

Yanks take the first one, Severino goes 8.

A homegrown ace. How about that?

Not the Yankees' specialty these last 20-30 years.

I think they'd be better with Steve Austin, after that horrible crash of course......But he'd cost $6M......

Last one was probably Guidry. Pettite was solid but never really what I considered an ace.

6 mil is a backup these days

Yeah, but Lee Majors is 79 now.....

Just saw they're remaking it. It's now the $6 billion dollar man.

Wonder if he'll still hang out with Bigfoot.

Agreed. Pettitte could pitch like an ace (Game 5, 1996), but he could also get lit up (Game 6, 2001)

Game 2. Bird sits, Gleyber at SS, Austin against a righty. Hard to complain when you're 21 games over on June 4, but hmmmm.


1. Brett Gardner (L) CF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Gary Sanchez (R) C
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Gleyber Torres (R) SS
6. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
7. Neil Walker (S) 2B
8. Tyler Austin (R) 1B
9. Clint Frazier (R) LF

Probably have to go back to Mel Stottlemyre before Guidry.....

 

[Pure Steel]

Gardner turning the corner.....getting great contact and seeing so many pitches has to help......This could be scary if he continues this way.....

 

[Pure Steel]

Andoublar.....

Stanton nice
