    ...Yanx are a .500 team lately (18-17)

    ...in the meantime the A's have gone 30-10

    ...and the Sox have gone 27-12.

    For some reason known but to God, I watched the final three innings of 1960 World Series Game 7. Included in that presentation were players whos contributions made a difference in that game. The final stats of that game hitter wise were astounding, only five walks issued by the pitchers, and in 71 total plate appearances by both teams, no one struck out. In 2018 we watch Yankee Players (among others) stand at the plate and let the balls go by. Yankee hitters last night stood like fucking statues. I wish the best of luck to Adams in todays game, bad time for a rookie to start a game but they all have to face it eventually.

    The above lineup is a mystery to me. Robinson muffed some right field chances pretty bad in a recent game so let's put him out there for tonights game. Robinson wouldn't be here if Cashman had not acquired him, he'd not be in the game if Boner hadn't played him. Accountability to GM & Manager. I always said Girardi knew his team better than anyone, I' wondering if Boner knows anyone on this team. I don't know if Boone is selling and the players aren't buying but that is my opinion at this point. Boner has looked like a deer caught in the headlights more times than I care to remember. This Yankee Team needs a manager with some spunk and hustle and I don't see that from Boner.

    2014 Yanks loose two of three in Oakland.
    2015 Yankees lose 3 of 4 in Oakland.
    2016 Oakland sweeps the Yanks in three in the Bronx. Yankees sweep the A's in Oakland- 4 games.
    2017- who can forget
    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/18/...-yankees-oakland-athletics-losing-streak.html

    I do not have the confidence for the Yanks on their next West Coast trip. I wish them the best but confidence is waning...
