Gray vs. Cashner

Lineups to follow...

 

[cagedlion]

Will they play or won’t they play? That is the question. There are no “Sonny” days with all the “Gray” skies.
We may be very grateful that the spring rains prevent another 3 inning pitching performance by this guy
who has a 5.98 ERA and rising.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I was hoping Boone would skip Gray and move on to Tanaka. The Orioles may not have a good overall team but they do have some individuals who can bop making Gray a poor choice for a Camden Yards start.

 

[cagedlion]

In early May Yankee pitching was ranked 5th, tied with Boston & LA Dodgers. Today, June 1st,
no surprise Yankees ranked 12th with 3.83 ERA.
Team pitching ranks:
1. Houston. 2.67
2. Washington. 3.23
3. Chicago Cubs 3.29
4. Philadelphia. 3.40
5. Arizona. 3.40
6. Milwaukee. 3.47
7. LA Dodgers 3.57
8. St. Louis. 3.58
9. Boston. 3.58
10 Atlanta. 3.61
11. LA Angels. 3.80

2018 MLB pitching stats are on very shaky grounds. 16 teams’ ERA are over 4.00 with Baltimore, Chicago Sox,
and Kansas City bringing up the rear with 5.00 or worse.

Since Aaron Hicks can throw 105 miles per hour, perhaps they should convert him to the pitching staff, not to mention we have too many outfielders as it is... Just saying

86 Degrees and Mostly Sunny in Baltimore right now or should I say Sonny???

 

[Yankeefan5545]

The most "Sunny" thing we could hear about Gray would be his departure from the team via any means possible.

I'd like to see the Yanx send Sonny Gray to Philly since It's always Sunny in Philadelphia or whenever Danny DeVito says so.

Maybe the Yanx should look to trade Mr Gray Skies to a Sunnier area, like AZ or LA.??
sure as hell never Kershaw. CK was just sent out on t/DL & for a MRI; 3rd or 4th DL stint for lower back problems. Lwr back probs NEVER get better or go away NEVER. Kershaw can't win the big one, never has and probably never will. CK doesn't deserve to be spoken in comparison to Koufax. One of the most dominating SP's I've ever seen, Sandy i.e.

 

[Lillie]

Gardner -LF
Judge -RF
Bird -1B
Stanton -DH
Gregorious -SS
Hicks -CF
Walker -3B
Romine -C
Torres -2B

 

[stampedehero]

After we take this series, we will be in first place pitching. O's offense is anemic.

With a 5. ERA he is on shaky ground.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Past Trumbo that Oriole lineup looks pretty anemic.

 

[Lillie]

Gleybar.

 

[Lillie]

Son of a Bitch 1-0.

 

[cagedlion]

The asshole is sooooooooo bad. Yankees down to bad ball club, 1-0.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Well our boy Sonny, never miss an early opportunity to put his team behind.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Stanton: Plan on doing anything today?

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^totally overrated. Like the rest of this team, they cannot hit the change up. Feed this team
junk, and you have a good shot to beat them. Record vs. O’s 1-3. Tough to swallow this stat.

 

[cagedlion]

If this runner scores with two outs........OMG ...he goes and hits a .211 batter with his shit change up.
Gray is always on the edge every inning with his junk; like I said in the past, he pitches scared and is all
over the place. I just get the feeling he will cave any moment.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Sorry Gray, every outing an adventure.

 

[Lillie]

Come on Judge.

 

[cagedlion]

Keep it going. Bases loaded no body out......Here comes the Judge! Shit. Come on Bird.
Two outs. Oh, great, Stanton. Not confident about him delivering. Batting .216 with RISP!
Big opportunity by the boards. As usual, Stanton fails with bases loaded.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Ain't believing that shit, knew Stanton was going to choke, hoped that Bird or Judge could come through. Power center of this team Jesus Christ, the lower three have been best lately!

 

[mrmel29]

Bird is the word!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Stanton, Jesus God Stanton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*(_(_)()_+*##^&90

 

[Lillie]

I have Agita.

 

[Lillie]

Romine???

 

[mrmel29]

Alll Riiise

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Some kind of miracle, Gray actually made 6 complete! Boston down to Houston 4-1

 

[Lillie]

Take him out.
