I rewatched Jeff banister postgame interviews from the rangers playoff losses to the blue jays this morning. I cracked a huge smile watching him try to explain the crap show on the field that he was in charge of.

I think the 2016 team was over rated, but the 2015 team could’ve done something. The main weakness in 2015 was the managing.

seriously? this fascination you have with Banny is borderline worrisome.

AP is reporting forearm strain near wrist.
This sounds like repetitive motion injury to me. I would sit him out the next start.

To me it is a no-brainer to put Bradford in the rotation. He is stretched out and Dunning is not. It would take Dunning 2 to 3 games to get as stretched out as Bradford will be by that time. If Dunning goes to the rotation both of his first two starts would essentially be bullpen games and we do not need any of those except in an emergency situation. I understand bringing up Yerry, but when deGrom's spot comes up, one of the relievers should be discarded/sent down and Bradford should be activated.

I wonder if it is related to the wrist problems he had a few days earlier?

I am anxious to see how Yerry does. I was hoping we would get to see him up here soon.

Should have DFA’d Kennedy and brought up Bradford and Yerry.

Outstanding play by Yankee LF. Good to see him walk off after hitting the wall.

Listening to radio broadcast. And yes we have had some outstanding defensive OF plays against us and not enough for us

Need Eovaldi to have a really good start. He’s been kind of shaky since getting here, but a win tonight would be huge.
