This is one of the greatest Yankees lineups ever ... The big names are producing or will without doubt at some point, but perhaps even more important the guys who's expectations weren't as high like LeMahieu, ursella, and Hicks are turning into elite players on their own too. What a killer line up to face with some defensive standouts too...turning into one of greatest all time imo.

It will all come down to if Judge and Stanton stay healthy. Cant forget the biggest change, getting an ACE. Cole is now 3-0 on the young season and still isnt looking his best yet.

The other guys are 5 & 1. Good thing about Cole he seems to be getting better with each start. Certainly good to know a guy like that is on the mound every 5 or so days ...can right the ship if it starts going off track

And Tanaka has only gone 2.2 IP so far. Good to have that ace in the hole.

I don't think the Sox will win 10 games. I really don't. I say the over/under is about 8.

JA Happ makes James Paxton look like Cy Young.
Stop me if you heard this before, the Yankees still dont have a good starting rotation.
Cole, Tanaka and Monyty.
JA Crap and Whaxton.

Him and Joe West are the politicians of umpiring. They are so bad for the game.

It is a good day to be a Yankees fan. It is not a good a day to be Derek Holland, who gave up 4 home runs and 5 hits in just 11 pitches.

Shocker.
Giancarlo Stanton has tightness in his hammy. Expects a IL trip.
He made it 13 games. Made of glass.
Only 7 more seasons! This is Ellsbury all over again.

Yanks win, but Judge left the game around the 7th or 8th inning.

Aaron Boone just said Judge is ok. He just wanted to give him some rest in what was a blowout until it became interesting.

Stanton and Judge...
If only those 2 could stay healthy.
I guess Im not really concerned about Stanton staying healthy though. He can be replaced by Tauchman or Frazier. Judge is the guy we would miss the most.
Even in a short 60 game season these guys dont last.

Couldn't stay awake for the post game presser last night. Stanton we can live without. Judge is one of the key's to our success IMHO.

Mike Tauchman is really under appreciated. So many star players can’t handle New York and here’s someone who was quite ordinary in Colorado but an impressive player here who will get playing time with our brittle outfield.

We scored with some Colorado guys recently. Tauchman and DJL. Not so much Tulo but he didnt cost much.

Makes you think Stanton is just slightly overpaid.

Makes you think Stanton is just slightly overpaid. When the Marlins signed him to that massive deal, I said it was the worst contract in all of baseball, despite him being in his prime (or even just prior). The the Yankees trade for him after his 1st 3 years of it (the cheap years). There were some that wanted Bryce Harper too. Stay away from that type of contract for OFers. They slow down quick. I would probably only consider Mike Trout or even a Mookie Betts on those kind of deals. Thsoe guys can rake. Stanton was just a power guy who cant stay healthy. The only reason I wanted Cole no matter what the cost was he was entering his prime IMO and we could get a great 4-5 years from him, while the Yankees were in this window and needing a top line pitcher. We need to win a championship or 2 in the next 5 years though for it to be worth it. But to just get out of that horrible Ellsbury contract and dive right back into another, was beyond stupid. Even at the time. Another contract that is absurd is the Aaron Hicks deal. Its much cheaper, but we have him now for another 6 seasons. Its crazy.
