Good start but….

[Messiah717]

Rays don’t lose and frankly this lineup stinks. Judge, Rice, Belly and then everybody else battening in the .100s. It’s ridiculous.

 

[yankeesince59]

And now there's the possibility that Fried may be done...once again, it appears that the Yanx. non-existent medical and conditioning department may be rearing it's ugly head once again...if you want TJ surgery, just come to the Yanx.

I'll put the chances of this once again "poorly constructed" franchise winning another ring this year at 5%.

 

[yankeesince59]

...and Bednar strikes again...please get rid of this gas can...Boone and Cashman too.

 

[Messiah717]

This bullpen is absolute dog shit. Naturally, this team would let the Mets do this.

 

[yankeesince59]

Yanx survive yet another Bednar collapse and win anyway 7-6...ERA now at 5.14

 

[yankeesince59]

Absolute trash of a team.

 

[Messiah717]

How can they put out a lineup like this? The bottom four batting below .200.

 

[yankeesince59]

Hal...PLEASE sell the team because that's the only way this franchise will ever see another WS Title.

 

[yankeesince59]

Same ole shit...the Rays have more real ball player than we do. Great return by Cole, wasted.

 

[Messiah717]

5.5 behind a better team now. They ran back the same bullshit team, with a worse bullpen. Even Judge is struggling. This is a mess.

 

[yankeesince59]

Judge walks it off with 2 run HR....but there's still this hard truth;

Is it a concern the Yankees struggle against teams with winning records?

Yahoo Sports Daily hosts Caroline Fenton and Jason Fitz discuss whether or not it's a big deal that the Yankees record versus teams above .500 is worrisome at this point of the season. Watch the full episode of Yahoo Sports Daily on YouTube or YahooSports.TV.

Damn, I sure wish we had Bobby Witt Jr.

 

[Messiah717]

Witt is a hell of a player. In the flip side the Wells experiment needs to end. I have no problem with him behind the plate, but he is not anywhere close to a major league hitter. Basically a guaranteed automatic out.

Yeah, at the bottom of the order which has been a "black hole" offensively, Volpe seems to have gotten better since his return, so have 3Bmen Rosario and McMahon...but Wells is, well, just terrible

 

[Messiah717]

This bullpen really is full of mediocrity.

 

[yankeesince59]

What an ugly, ugly game.

 

[Messiah717]

Judge now will be out a while. Stress fracture of one of his ribs.

 

[yankeesince59]

They're saying up to 4 weeks.

 

[Messiah717]

Now I heard 4 to 6 weeks and then they’ll do another MRI. That means he won’t be doing anything in that time.

 

[Messiah717]

Some sports medicine guys are saying generally it could be an 8 to 12 week injury.

 

[yankeesince59]

Hate to keep bringing up Hal and Cashman, but they are the Fathers of all this. And they have completely wasted Judge's best years and knowing this, I keep asking myself why I still even bother following this franchise.

 

[yankeesince59]

Bednar double-crossed me...Goldschmidt put the Yanx up in the 9th...and Bednar closed it out by striking out the side in the bottom of the 9th.

 

[Messiah717]

Lineup is rough with the injuries. Have to keep finding a way.

 

[yankeesince59]

Rice is quickly becoming a Yankee legend. And Goldschmidt continues to impress.
