Game Thread Royals vs Yankees Sunday 7/31/22 1:35pm @ Yankee Stadium

Be a part of something great, join today!

Hope Monty is in better form than (he was) against the Mets.
 
Greinke and Monty are hooked up in a pitching duel thru 4 complete.
 
Well, one way to pitch to Judge is…….walk him. Four straight balls from control pitcher Greinke. Fans booed.
 
Again and again, with runners on base with 2 outs & up steps Trash Donaldson. All year he leaves them on base…..
and all Aaron BaBoone does is blow his bubble gum. Donaldson is All-Pretender.
 
Bases loaded nobody out. Monty is withering in real time. Get him outta there! He walks 2,
gives up 2 strike single and another 2 strike single to a lefty hitter. KC 2 NYY 0.
KC batters are attacking Monty’s soft pitches. Could get real bad here.
 
Great fucking job, Monty...you brought all of this on yourself.
 
^^^^^Monty is done. Can’t get anybody out in the 5th. SOB. How soon will he go on IL?
 
We have/had 4 areas that we needed to improve.
1- we needed to get Gallo out of this lineup and off this team. We sorta addressed that by trading for Benentendi but Gallo is still here for BaBoone to use and like the moron he is, we know Boone is gonna use him.
2- we need starting pitching. Instead of getting the best available starter, Cashman was asleep at the wheel and got beat out by the lowly M’s. Now the cost of getting any other starter has increased.
3- we need a REAL 3B…if only we hadn’t traded Gio for this POS Donaldson we wouldn’t have to worry about this crap. Instead, we traded Gio for an overrated Donaldson who has an immovable contract and IKF who was a throw in, but has been MUCH better than Donaldson.
4- we need bullpen help. As is, our bullpen is going to be totally worn out come playoff time since NONE of our starters (not even our “ace” Cole) can consistently go 6 or more innings.
 
Yankee lefty pitchers having tough time getting lefty hitters out. Montgomery and now Peralta. Ugh.
And now he walks another lefty batter on 4 pitches. Wow. The weaknesses keep showing with each game.
Bases loaded again with 2 outs. Peralta cannot throw a strike!

Better teams will give this team fits.
 
Alright boys, we dodged a huge bullet with Peralta pitching...let's get some runs !

Yankees analytics claims Donaldson is better than Gio Urschela. Not in my book.
 
Damnit Hicks...what kind of crackhead strategy was that?

I'll go you one better...how in the hell does Gallo have a positive WAR?
 
Rizzo comes through. Upper deck shot. Now, let’s hope pen holds the fort.
 
Marinaccio gives back a run with Dozier’s first hit of this series, a HR. NY 6 KC 5 top 8 no outs.
Gets key DP grounder to get out the jam in 8th inning.

^^^^^I can! At this rate BaBoone will wear out this bull pen by end of August……maybe sooner.

Nice job Holmes. Choked it up against cincy and Kc, 2 powerhouses. Chapman will be closing again shortly
 
All Yankees starting pitchers having tough time getting into the 6th inning. I do not know if this is by Yankee
management design or the starters are all on pitch counts; either way Yankee bullpen is already gassed!
Not a good sign for playoffs.
