    Even when Donaldson gets a hit, he shits the bed with terrible base running.

    Yanks up 1-0 very early.

    Yep. What happens when you jog out of the box because you know it’s gone and it barely reaches the fence. God, I hope we get rid of this POS somehow next year

    Peraza sitting again for the useless IKF. Give the kid playing time so we can see what we have. We already know IKF sucks

    Taillon throw a 94 mph inside strike at the knees to Sanchez, which Sanchez launches 470 ft at 115mph exit velocity.

    So many of today's Pitchers
    have no clue what a brush back pitch, is to set themselves up.
    There's no excuse in giving up a home run to Sanchez not with that pitch. He might as well just tossed it down the middle! Personally I would have thrown a heater inside high chin music, not to hit him but to knock him back on his ass in the dirt!
    Sanchez has always been very intimidated with the few who have thrown chin music!

    No excuses, I was beginning to like the accomplishments of our pitching coach, now... shit can 'em all!

    He's borrowing GT's notebook for base running!

    I would put Perazza at SS, and Cabrera at 3rd. Sit IKF and Donaldson. Donaldson is capable defensively at 3rd, depends what week it is or day it is. Cabrera can also play second or short, probably the same with Perazza!

    Volpe looked defensively stellar at the All Star Futures game in July, and why he's not been called up is pure bullshit!
    The thing about Volpe playing SS this is overall defense. This building percentage is .001 better than IKF's.
    Defense Pctg %
    Volpe .971%
    IKF .970%

    Judge launchs HR #54 into the 2nd deck, down the line.
    On a pace to hit 65 HRs.
    I'm shocked that nobody's walking him.
    The 2022 MVP, who beats teams single-handedly!

    We’ll take the victory but yanks need to figure out what their doing with peraza. Kid is our best fielding shortstop and need to see if he can hit up here. Donaldson is doing nothing offensively and defensively. IKF was a GG 3rd baseman and if he has to play put him there. Nobody wants to see donaldson, gleyber or hicks anymore. Benitendi surgery scheduled for tmo and who knows how long he’ll be out for. Thank god for the twins.

    ^^^Given mediocre production from Torres, Donaldson, and Hicks, vs the youngsters, I'd rather watch the youngsters.
