AL East Thread

One suggestion for Jackson. Grow some facial hair. You look like you are 12. (but he hits like a grown man)

Blue Jays have to be the most disappointing team in baseball

The AL West teams are trying to give them life and they are out here blowing 3-0 leads to Oakland.

Casas is good.


That home run put him over .500 slugging with a 131 wRC+

Excited to see this kid get a cup of coffee in AA ball to wrap up the season. He’s really emerged this year and is only 19:

He’s now 5th in the AL in OPS. He has to be the ROY favorite at this point, no?

I think it'll be Gunnar. Casas has been a better hitter, but we're talking a 132 wRC+ from a 1B that's struggled defensively (and I do think he's improving) versus a 121 wRC+ fron a good defensive 3rd baseman. Gunnar has a pretty big edge in WAR (3.3 to 1.6 per FanGraphs). Of course, if Gunnar struggles in September and Casas continues to rake...

I'm just happy with his development.

Dominquez' left handed swing seems tailor made for Yankee stadium. Excited to see him there. Should be a fun roll call tonight.

With a win tonight, the Yankees will be 69-69 for the first time since 1969.

Nice!

According to SB Nation, 66% of Yankees fans want Judge shut down for the season. That sounded utterly absurd to me, so I wanted to check with the Yankees fans on here to see if anyone felt that way.

Unless he needs surgery I say let him play.

I was leery at first, because what's the point?

But he's definitely running a lot better the last week or so than when he first came off

Cole vs the Tigers

Liking the odds of the Yanks getting lucky tonight!

Or they'll get 3 hits and lose 2-1 with both Tiger runs unearned

Without the toe injury, there’s a REALLY good chance he would have hit 60+ HR’s again this year. Only McGwire and Sosa are in the club of guys who have done it twice.

Now they will lose

WTF was that, Abreu?

And of course that leads to a 2-run shot.
