    Michael Kay said it......the Dodger-Yankees series......maybe a preview of the World Series.
    Kay, have you been watching how the Yankee starters are pitching?

    Note to Boner: Hiroshimas Revenge is not pitching well, LaMahieu and Urshele are not hitting. This spells loss. You need a Pen for the Dodgers Series so keep old Tanaka out there till his arm falls off. Damn pathetic shown by this Yankee team out there.

    The Yankees have one legitimate starter in Herman the German.

    Other than German, Yanx SP's pitch like Middle Reliever's 3/4ths of the time.

    Ford makes catching a foul pop fly an unbelievable Adventure...

    LeMahieu & Urshela 0/8 this evening, in conjunction with a non-quality start by Tanaka: disaster.

    note to cesspool- the dirt is not part of the strike zone and neither is the backstop screen

    Two out in the top of the ninth and GT hits a second solo home run of the night. Good going kid.

    GT doing his best to win the game single-handedly unfortunately his teammates did not pick him up

    The biggest screw-up of the game had to be sancheeto over running the base in the second inning.

    Looks like GT was the only Yankee who came to play this evening. 15.5 million will come off of the books at seasons end when Biggie & Gardner depart. Another 12 million could be saved if they let Gregorius walk.

    add Stanton and another 26 Million (or 260 Mil for 9 Yrs).

    then talk Trout into wearing Pinstripes....

    Hell the way he plays, he can Pitch too.
    He'd be the only Pitcher in the AL who bats in the DH spot...
    Not even Nippon Shoes does as much.

    Yep, and more importantly one of few to throw a Perfect Game, for the White Sox, in his short career...
