I've heard many a sportscaster or analyst praise the Yankee Pen to the skies. They must not be seeing the same games as I've seen!
....^^^^ A-Fkng-Men !!! I couldn't of said it better. Another big bopper instead of a big SP Stopper. This team needs hitters who accumulate more Walks than Strikeouts ... Instead we get HR or bust mentalities with record numbers of Strikeouts, much more K's than hits. This yrs team has 719 Strikeouts and 744 Hits. 2018 Yankees had 1374 Hits and 1421 Strikeouts!!! Compare to the 98 Yankees- 1,625 Hits/ 1,031 Strikeouts Mattingly had 2153 Hits and 444 Strikeouts. Gwynn 3,141 Hits, 431 SO Even the Free Swinging Vlad Guerrero had 2,590 Hits and 985 Strikeouts... I don't expect everyone 2b a HOF'r BUT this HR or Bust BaBoone mentality is a fkng BUST, as is the Bullpen Starting Pitchers The complete-game pitcher, was replaced by the- "give me 7 strong innings," down to- "give me 6 strong innings". Now it is down to- "give me 5 innings if you can, with 1-2 innings, maybe, perhaps, strong....
