Really don’t understand taking out Tanaka for Britton. Tanaka was dealing and didn’t have a high pitch count. Now Britton comes in and promptly shits the bed and puts the Rays right back into the game.
I certainly loved the signing of DJ over Machado at the time. DJ could play multiple infield positions, was cheap and not a cancer like Machado. Most real Yankees fans didn’t want Machado.
Britton has thrown more pitches this inning than Tanaka did in ANY of his innings in the game. BaBoone over thinking (even though he’s brainless) with the move there. Britton extremely lucky the Rays bailed him out swinging at balls outta the zone.
I wondered what the hell was going on, had to follow by game cast since MLB changed todays game. Yep the Trop is a Dump, I won't go over there even when the Yakees are in town!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like if it reaches a 30 minute delay the game should be called. Can’t have these guys standing around for 30 minutes (not like a rain delay where there is still power and the players can stay loose in the clubhouse etc) and then start playing again.
....^^^^ The Team wouldn't be the same without LeMahieu, no doubt, and Urshela also... Would of been sweet to of obtained Brantley over Maybin also.
Betcha most fans wear their Sauna suits too... Amazing the Trop's not been bulldozed. Exposition Park and the Kingdome were actually not as bad as they were made out to be, when compared to the Trop or AssholeStrodome...
I have it on pretty good order from someone I know that the Stadium they want to build over in Ybor City ain't gonna fly, pretty much for the same reason the one in '07 got turned down, not enough attendance.
With MLB wanting to further water down the talent and expand with two additional teams ; Manfred has six cities/locales on his radar. Tampa and Oakland may wind up elsewhere- Portland, Las Vegas, Charlotte, Nashville Montreal, maybe Vancouver, “We think there’s places in Mexico we could go over the long haul.” (No fkng way!!!)
Urshela: atonement clutch. strikes out 4 times, they walk Voit to face him (Urshela) and he pops a bases loaded double. Good fucking job, Yankees finally call in an air strike!!!!!!!!!!!!
Andujar needs to go down to the minors and work out his swing. He’s 100% guessing and throwing his bat out there hoping it makes contact. He’s lost at the plate. With Urshela there’s no need to see Andujar up there swinging and missing and trying to give the opposing pitchers a cold with all his strikeouts.
