Fingers crossed for a miracle or two... TEX @ OAK 4/22-24

[Uncle Siggy]

The first four look like ugly on a ape......Festus Hagen

And if they leave Otto in that slot it would be a good test for him pitching against the Bungholes on Tuesday. Or if Howard stinks again they could delay him until Thursday to give the coaches some time to work with Howard...

That's a lot of "IFs" isn't it...

if Howard stinks again and that is a strong probability. i would send him down and bring up Alexy. then it would be Monday - Dunning, Tuesday - Hearn, Tuesday - Gray, Wednesday - Otto, Thursday - Alexy and Friday - Perez

Alexy is stinking it up right now in AAA so he needs to stay put and get his stuff together...

I'm pretty sure this is why they went after Matt Moore since he's been a starter in the past, to help get through times like this...

BTA you always have Arihara in AAA but you'd have to open a 40 man slot for him which would mean Sborz going on the 60 if his elbow messed up enough to warrant it...

If Perez and Howard don't look a lot better against the A's then they should be sent to A ball.

Alexy had some control issues in his first two starts, but he only walked one in his last start.

I think they see Moore strictly as a reliever at this point. I don't think he would have been brought up without a Covid situation making it possible to bring him up without putting him on the 40 man.

Minor league starting pitchers today:

AAA. Arihara
AA. Leiter
High A. Englert
Low A. TBD

It would be great to see Leiter continue to dominate and it would be good to see Englert have a good game.

 

[Uncle Siggy]

not interested

I'm not either but they're options if needed...

i know but would rather see us go with someone who might have a future

I didn't see the stats of his last start before, looks like he did better so I will shut up about him stinking

Just saw that IKF doubled with 2 outs in the 9th against Clase to tie the game and then scored the winning run on a double by Torres. Glad for him as the guy did everything that was asked of him while he was here including playing catcher which I think messed him up for a little while.

Him and Trevino have been a pleasant surprise for the Yanks

 

[DT LUNA]

Semien is 9 for 53. Little disapointing.

For some reason they haven't played Trevino near as much as Higashioka which I am not sure why because I like Trevino on the defensive side as well. Just hope that doesn't mess him up some.

 

[Kelleyman]

Alot going on here including Gallo maki f a feeble attempt to congratulate in the mob hug.
But he looks totally out of place.
The end of his Yankee career is hastening

 

[DT LUNA]

Perez pitching well so far

 

[Uncle Siggy]

Perez pitching well so far

If he can keep his pitch count down they might let him go 6 which would be a good thing...

 

[DT LUNA]

And the Teen manages 5. Good job.

 

[Kelleyman]

Regardless of call. Not good to hit the ground ball in this situation
