Game Thread Yankees vs. Tigers Thursday, 8/30/18 7:05 pm

Go back to the Yankee 3rd inning, at the time it meant one less run......when Gardner was thrown out at 3rd base
just before Stanton eventually hit his 2 run HR.....it should have been a 3 run homer....no one mentioned it because
of the HR. Well, at game’s end it proved big.....but then again Yankee pitching made Tigers look like a powerhouse.
What an embarrassing outcome.

Again BaBoone’s mismanagement of his pitchers makes this staff look pathetic. Losses like this should not be taken lightly. He’s trying to rationalize Betances’ performance. The less said, the better.

Yanks fielding mistakes hurt haaap along with his pitching. Getting tired of Torres both in his mental mistakes in the field and the numerous times he gets thrown out trying to take Ana extra base when the play is in front of him.he needs to wake up.

Yep, Gardner sure fucked that one up and yeah the bomb took away something we all probably noticed. This team has been notorious for miscues of many different types. Not the most profession at times this '18 team.

Just breaking from hey man a minute ago yanks closing in on deal with giants for Andrew mccutcha . Would be happy with that but it also probably means they do t think judge is coming back this season imo

 

[mrmel29]

Buster lonely says done deal for mccutchan 2 prospects going back a elino is one of them

Looking at the schedule, I thought this team should win 6 of the 7 games on this homestand. As it stands now,
they’ll be lucky to win 3 of 7 at home against two of the weaker teams in the AL.
This does not bode well in the post season.

^^^^....

I can only guess the Yankees are not being upfront about Judges condition, and do not expect him back soon by picking up McCutchen... Hope to hell he's hot as a firecracker...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

PS- This is NOT a playoff-caliber team not the way they've been playing of late. Resting on their laurels of a hot hot streak earlier in the year. Our beloved team does not have the starting pitching staff to go deep into a postseason if they're lucky to win a wild-card game & The bullpen as well-

Imagine if the entire team were healthy and the starting pitching staff resembled that Of the 90s - Y2K+3/4 Yankees....

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^Matt, to paraphrase William Shakespeare, there is a foul odor emanating in Yankee hierarchy.......
they are not being honest with the Judge situation. To be honest, Cashman’s mysterious
moves do not let me imagine what this team is capable of doing. He’s been juggling players
all season long with mediocre results at best.

I think McCutchen is a done deal.

 

[yankeesince59]

...with the exception of Hudge, Hicks, and DiDi the Yanx defense in general has been lacking all year. And I know they're young and have great futures, both Andujar and Torres need to greatly improve in the field.


...I'll reserve judgment on "Cutch".

 

[yankeesince59]

I think McCutchen is a done deal.

...I hope not...maybe a change of scenery will help him...and the longer Judge is out the more concerned I am about his wrist.

 

[mrmel29]

Mccutchan will be a very good addition who will be recharged in a pennant race, a great clubhouse addition and will be happy as hell to leave san francisco park for the cozy confines of yankee stadium. What cashman fcked uo is this move should have been made 3 weeks earlier,. The shane robinson era is thankfully finally over.
