Sonny Gray 5.0 IP 5 hits, 2 BBs, 0 ERs, 5ks Win vs Toronto Amazing. Our ex pitchers are dominating the playoffs right now He turned into a pumpkin in the big Apple.. Once he left the city that never sleeps his career woke up. yeah, some players just can't handle the pressure. In Evoldi's case, he simply couldn't stay healthy when he was here. I think the team really liked him otherwise. Of course the Montgomery trade was a fiasco.

Fixed Monty has always been a good pitcher. Never an ace, but a good middle rotational piece. Cashman traded him for an OFer in a boot. Then trades all our pitching depth in the system for settling on Montas. Anyways, after all the AL East hype, the Rays and Blue Jays get eliminated in the WC without a win. Only the Os are left.

Seeing Montgomery and Gray handle their business in playoff baseball are two more bitter pills for us to swallow.

Who do you have coming out of the AL? I'm kind of leaning toward a Houston and Atlanta WS.

Then whoever comes out of the NL.

Atlanta is actually in some real trouble, just like Baltimore.

Aaaand they got swept. AL East goes 0-7 in the postseason in games, 0-3 in series. Ouch

In Baltimore's case, I will chalk it up as them being young and not ready. They ran into a team on fire with more experience.

As expected, Houston is right back in the ALCS. 7 times in a row for the record.

The Dodgers are on life support as well. 3 solo shots for the d backs in the 3rd to take a 3-0 lead with a possible 4th under review.

Lol, the 4th home run was called foul. The hitter hit the next pitch out for the 4th home run in the inning. Wild

I seriously dislike Philadelphia sports. It's bad enough that the Yankees and Giants aren't good enough. Seeing the Eagles and even the Phillies this good is just salt on the wound.

To think that the Yankees could've had BOTH Bryce Harper and Manny Machado. Instead, we got Giancarlo Stanton and DJL. I will never forget Cashman saying it wasn't realistic for the Yankees to sign Harper. How this 🤡 keeps his job is beyond me lol

This trade never would've happened if Jeter never bought into the Florida Marlins.

Jordan Montgomery dominates the Astros and gets the W for the Rangers Of course he did! Im actually pulling for him and the Rangers. Cashman did Monty dirty. Jordan was a professional here, and was a solid middle rotational guy, homegrown. Much better than Rodon and Montas combined here. He is in his prime right now since he had a late start (24 year old rookie). 2.79 ERA in 11 starts for Texas. 58Ks to 13 BBs Looks a lot older with a beard now too.

The Yankees need to dump that shave policy. Monty looks happy and rejuvenated. I'm definitely pulling for him.
