    ...been the same all year with Eovaldi...he has the stuff but he needs to be more efficient. I'd like to see him go deeper in games.

    The Jays made some heavy additions, Yankees got Ackley. Getting serious, got to avoid the dingers, hopefully the starters get further into games. The last game I saw in old Yankee Stadium was against Toronto. Also lets hope that the Yankees draw an exuberant boisterous crowd.

    Un fucking believable, every day I check the sports headlines hoping I'll read that Cashman has been fired and everyday I am disappointed that he's still with the team.

    Of course it doesn't , but when you take a major league pitcher out of the game when he has a 1 & 2 count on a batter, it kinda does

    Who has hit two late inning game deciding HRs for WINS (at Seattle).
    Not too bad for a spare part 1b/RF/DH.......I know some were expecting a "good" YOUNG ATHLETIC top prospect type player for THAT role...but it didn't....and usually DOESN'T happen that way. :ughno:

    I can only imagine the complaining if they weren't in first place. Enjoy the season Pasta and let go of the Girardi hate.
