    ...this Ump sure has a low strike zone...but at least he's calling them the same for both teams.

    Tanaka is pitching a gem. 7 innings on only 76 pitches with 9 Ks. Does Girardi send him out for the 8th?

    Yeah it was certainly a low strike. I don't blame him for being upset. There's nothing you are doing with that except grounding out.

    One batter so maybe Rodgers can now come in and ruin the game.

    Garshdarnit......why is GJG going with Capuanao to start the 8th when he also had Lindgren warming up and ready?

    2nd time this road trip GJG has chosen to go with a gas can reliever over Lindgren WITH a cushion to work with.

    The first game of the trip (CC game) he went with Carpenter over Lindgren and that bum promptly gave up an RBI hit.....thank goodness they DFA Carpenter today.

    Now today...GJG (gentleman Joe GIrardi), has a two run lead starting the 8th inning and he chooses to begin the inning with Capuano who gave up a leadoff hit forcing GJG to kinda panic and bring in Miller for a 5 out save.


    I would've brought Lindgren in to start the 8th and.....the inning may have AREADY been over!

    THEY DRAFTED LINDGREN AS A RELIEVER....he has shown great ability to K batters...he pitched well in his LAST APPEARANCE......why even THINK of Capuano to start the 8th inning?


    Just one of the "millions" of decisions a MANAGER (not the GM) makes over the course of a season......



    Capuano? With Lindgren ready and willing.....
    STOP WITH THE RETREAD marshmallows and get the kid in there.

    Nor I, tomorrow is an off day so he could have used Betances again.

    Bases loaded because Girardi can't help himself when it comes to this pen.

    Betances is a freak but with these others guys you're going to start to see the effects this pens overuse.

    If Miller gets out of this inning don't be surprised to see Betances in the 9th.

    Good win and a much needed sweep. Hopefully Tanaka can stay healthy because he clearly is a huge difference maker. The offense remains very homer reliant but if they win I can't complain. This remains a bad divison they should win.

    Lindgren was the right move - IMHO - to begin the 8th.
    Those are the situations where you want to give the kid a chance....let HIM (not Capuano) at least get the chance to allow a base runner before turning to Miller......and Betances was off the board today....want his arm to fall off?

    I'll take 4-3 on the road trip considering that abortion of a series in Oakland.

    Yankees win! 4-3 w/coastroad trip!
    Tanaka looked great.

    Good going after Oakland...4-3 is fine and dandy at this time.
    Now we wait on McCann"s foot MRI.

    Go Yanks.....where's my pom poms?
