    Yanx are 16-0 when allowing 4R-or-fewer, the only remaining
    undefeated team in such games.

    Yanx first sweep of the Angels on the road since 7/29-31/03 (3G)

    CC Sabathia (1.71 Era in 018) is unbeaten in his last 13 regular season starts since 8/19/17, going 7-0 with a 2.49 Era (from 8/19/017 thru 4/29/018) - (72.2IP, 20 ER)...is tied for the second-longest unbeaten streak of his career, behind an 18-start streak from 6/10-9/10/08 w/ Cleveland and Milwaukee...

    CC is currently tied for the third-longest active streak by a starter in Baseball (Justin Verlander and Robbie Ray, 14GS).

    impertinent? but-
    Since the start of 2017, CC is 9-0 with a 1.88 ERA (76.2IP, 16ER) in 13 regular season starts following a Yankees loss.

    Another win! I like our 7-4 road record.
    [Bird is making progress and Drury may join the team in Houston.] Drury with blurry eyesight is a caution. I Hope he is OK.

    I was only making light of t/situation; but haven't seen a sign of anyone giving up on the Team.

    too critique, yeah that's a given for any Yankee Fan-

    Dingleberry Yes, I'd throw him off a cliff. If Betances can't return to form, he'd be eligible too for tossing. Our BP is questionable with a few usual suspects. SP's 4 of 5 capable-Gray has yet to live up to his hype/contract.

    Hopefully soon Drury will be a UT, not a starter. Hopefully Bird can return to the nest healthy over a long haul, (honestly I'm not holding my breath, not due to a lack of talent or excitement; some xlnt players bodies can't stay healthy over a long haul). Hopefully Trashman will wake up & realize how to build a 'lights out' SP/RP staff, as if it comes to him in a dream...

    Gardner, he looks like a fish out of water, his swings choppy & out of sync, his arm rubber, but his determinations alive and well...

    As for the Owners, GM and rookie Mgr, they will always be under fire, bright lights. What Boone brings to the table is yet to be determined. He inherited keys to self driving car, but the time will manifest when he's got to drive/fly without an autopilot...

    ...well, I suppose I understand what you're saying but complaining during games is what many of us do...but I don't recall anyone ready to jump ship on this team.
    ...it's not like we're all gonna be singing "Kumbaya" all the time so just as with the ebbs and flows of a team's season, so goes the tide sometimes within a message board.

    I am just as irrational as the next fan when it comes to in game comments but it just felt over the top when the Yanks came out of the box a bit slow....but hey we are playing terrific ball now and we should have nothing to complain about now lol
