    Pineda, facing the bottom of the order, 10-3 lead and could not finish. Even his pocket comb isn't an ace. !!!!!!!!!!!

    Giving up two strike base hits is a "no-no". OMG........7 runs is a f'kin' joke. How many times this
    year has the relief corp made games closer than should be?

    Poor D & relief put a damper on 'the hit parade'. Bottom line: put it in the W column.

    Yankee hitters beat KC's ace pitcher tonight. Hick's HR in the fourth inning was the
    turning point hit of the night. Everything else was just frosting on the cake and they needed
    every bit of the frosting! Thank you Gallegos.

    ...gotta agree that the BP is a concern. If the starters are not able to go deeper into games the relief pitching is gonna be worn out by July.

    ...been saying all year that we need to add another front end starter at the trade deadline because there's no way the offense will sustain their current ability to put a lot of runs on the board. We simply cannot continue out-slugging our opponents all season and especially in the PS (if we make it that far) where we'll be facing top shelf pitching.


    ...we have the trade chips to make a big splash at the deadline...find a way, Cashman.

    ^^yeah, I know that Chapman and Betances can both be dominating, but to be honest, I'm still a little nervous whenever they come in.

    ps- I don't agree with Hudler or the 'lights out bullpen', and both Chapman and Betances make me nervous as a Whore in Church...
