Looking at this 4 game series against Cleveland and their rotation is stacked...maybe deepest in all of baseball. Be fortunate to get out of there with another split. Seeing teams like this post season like last year when they're worn down is a different story than midseason pre-all star break.

So pray the Yankees stay in the game until their bullpen comes in.

IDK what Boone is thinking leavjng him. Theyve been clobbering him since jnnkng 1. 9 hits thru 5. Clearly didn't have it. Same thing leaving tanaka in to start inning and face machado for a third time after he clearly lost it. That HR changed the whole game. Boone just refuses to pull some guys before 6th inning even though we're supposed to have the deepest pen in MLB.

5-3 in the 8th inning, and Cleveland's bullpen is in the game now.
Yessssssssss....

When the left hand bats are alive like they are tonight it creates real problems for the opposing team.... Take out your RHP and bring in your LHP and prepare to get devoured by this lineup, especially when a healthy gleybor and Sanchez are back. If the lefties continue to hold up their end of the bargain I truly believe they can overcome shaky starters ... even in post season.
biggest concern at that point is Boone

The biggest concern is the starting pitching, not Boone. And this is coming from a guy who didn't want to see Girardi let go.

Friggin Red sux won their 10th in a row tonight!

Probably the best at bat of the season for God's team.

Yes, I saw the highlight. Which included a failed attempt by Smoak to catch a foul pop up during that at bat. Thanks a lot, Smoak!

Yankees need another top starting pitcher. They need one badly. At least call up Sheffield and let him take a stab at it. Sometimes, the answer is right there in the minors. Every team that negotiates with the Yankees are going to ask for him and/or Florial.

Nice defensive play by Wade. Sans the rotation, this team has more depth than any other I can recall

Oh well, looking like split with Indians. Which I'd said I'd settle for before the series so I guess I can't complain. Headed to all star break with some positives and some question marks. It feels less positive thannit should however due to Red Sox record.

Just as I say that...ERod out indefinitely. Wright has no date to return. Down to three starters.

Unless a real ace comes on market, Yanks will settle for a "solid" #3 type rotation guy. Which begs the question who do they part with? Imo Frazier is the most obvious soon to be former Yankee (and perhaps it's just my bias as I don't respect his game all that much...looks very unpolished in the outfield and seems like he has an attitude far in excess of his production.) Imo they won't part with any top minor league pitching prospects. If a pitcher is included from Yanks I could see it being someone like German, whos shown other teams he a big league arm, but not shown Yankees he is consistent or progressed enough to keep. If not German, than gray...basically one of these guys will become expendable if they trade for another starter. If gray goes then look for romaine to go too...with Sanchez set to return they don't need 3 catchers. Other guys they could include, but I'd rather they not, are walker (who they've been showcasing) and andujar (who's bat has gone quiet). They have some backup here with torreyes.
My wish list would be something like Frazier, gray and romine, for hamels (who comes closest to "ace" status out of the mid-calibar guys, but I'd settle for Happ.

"According to a very trustworthy source, Manny Machado to the #yankees is "near the finish line" to getting done. Some names we're told the #orioles will get: Albert Abreu, Brandon Drury, Estevan Florial and Tyler Wade. Sheffield NOT among the names."
I'm not sure if this is really happening, but I do not like giving up Florial for a rental player.
